There seems to be a lot of interest in USB OTG lately, and I thought
I'd pass on something I saw recently that looked interesting:

   
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/corporate/view_detail.asp?FileName=AT90USB1287_2_14.html

That's a press release (with links to chip specs).  Notice that $40 USB-OTG
"AT90USBKEY" (in April?).  It looks to be a good platform for prototyping
open source peripherals(*) that talk to Linux ... or learning low level USB
stuff, including OTG, without needing an embedded Linux setup.

Note this is the 8-bit AVR; you can't run Linux on it, but GCC handles it
nicely, and flash programmers like "avrdude" support all-Linux development
environments.  For those with allergies:  it's not 8051-like.  :)
