I believe they are working on a new SA-1110 and PXA-250 design.
Aleph One http://www.aleph1.co.uk/armlinux/LART/index.html may still have some LART's in stock. For PXA Intel has a dev board http://developer.intel.com/design/pca/applicationsprocessors/tools_software/dbpxa250.htm For Xscale Intel has the IXCDP1100 dev board http://developer.intel.com/design/network/products/cpp/ixcdp1100.htm For the IXP1200 they have the IXDP1200 platform http://developer.intel.com/design/network/products/npfamily/ixdp1200.htm For the IXP2400 and IXP2800 http://developer.intel.com/design/network/products/npfamily/ixdp2x00.htm For the IOP321 http://www.intel.com/design/iio/docs/iop321.htm the PXA-250 is very popular for handheld and PDA designs, they have just added MMX instructions to the PXA so it will be a hot platform for handheld gaming, Mpeg-4, MP3 devices. The IXP processors are used for networking applications and the IOP for storage applications. The new iPAQ 3900 also makes for a budget 400MHz PXA250 dev platform. http://www.handhelds.org has quite a bit of software and How-To's on firmware conversions and updates for handhelds.
