if people are interested in a KIT verison .. maybe it's not a bad idea to pre-order kits .. and to bring the part prices down ..

what should the KIT contain ?

pcb + parts + avalons + cooling fan + heatsink

or also other parts such as a PIC programmer.. etc..


I'd go for a kit including everything except the PIC programmer.  While it would be nice to have it as a separate line item option I've already got a PIC programmer so I'd just need the parts for this specific project.  I'm thinking it could be useful for someone who, for example, is used to AVR's and isn't set up to program a PIC.

Man, a kit would be fantastic.  I could practice my SMD soldering skills without worrying about sourcing individual parts or getting a PCB fabricated.  This would be ideal.
