Here's another recently announced hobbyist microcontroller system: http://makezine.com/controller/ Uses Atmel SAM7X processor, ARM7, 32-bit, 256K Flash, 64K SRAM, up to 55MHz. On-board Ethernet and CAN (Controller Area Network - wireless) Various I/O blocks and on-board sensors ~US$150 Start shipping Aug 1st. No Python binary yet, but cross-platform tools are available. The guys at this magazine could really get a jump with a Python build. Here's a related site for this kit: www.uCHobby.com -- Paul -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
