Hey Road Testers!  What product(s) would you love to get your hands on?

Rather than start a new thread, I thought I would add this here:

The Digilent / Analog Devices Analog-Discovery "A Complete Analog Design Kit for the Price of a Textbook"

Analog Inputs

• AD9648 dual, 14-bit, 105 MSPS, 1.8 V dual analog-to-digital converter
• 2-channel differential (1 MΩ, 24 pF), ±20 V max
• 250 μV to 5 V/division with variable gain settings
• 100 MSPS, 5 MHz bandwidth, up to 16k points/channel record length

• AD9717 dual, 14-bit, 125 MSPS, low power digital-to-analog converter
• 2-channel, single-ended, arbitrary waves up to ±4 V
• 100 MSPS, 5 MHz bandwidth, up to 16k samples/channel
• Standard and user-defined waveforms
• Sweeps, envelopes, AM and FM modulation

• 2 fixed +5 V (+50 mA) and –5 V (+50 mA)

• 16 signals shared between logic analyzer, pattern generator, and discrete I/O devices
• 100 MSPS, buffer size is 4k transitions per pin
• Crosstriggering with scope channels

• Waveforms software: full-featured GUI for all instruments
• Windows XP or newer

^ Hmmm... Nice package - everything you need is at one place.

And... it's pretty inexpensive.

What do you think about test one of this? http://www.ti.com/tool/msp-sa430-sub1ghz?DCMP=sa430&HQS=sa430-b

I have ordered one of these to play with as the price is so amazing...will let you know how i get on with it!
