I would really enjoy to test some new arduino stuff. I got some projects in mind, like a midi controler or a 3d printer that would be good to have arduino stuff to do it.

I'd be keenly interested in some low power wireless (ZigBee, 6LoWPAN, DASH7, etc) demo kit. TI has some nice stuff as do some of the other vendors. The "smart lightbulb" that Google is coming out with…

I'm personaly would like to get oscilloscope, even analog one (sometimes those are even better in some tasks), but not those USB ones, becouse those have very litle working voltage range (i think 9V is about max). Of course for basic testing it is enouth and loging data is simple.
Well Arduino or in serial programer and it doesn't matter which one microchip or atmel (well i think atmel is better becouse i know some C already )

A great technology that I'd love to see as a road test option are probes. I do a lot of work with measurements, and these tools are very complex and useful for my field.

An outfit in the Netherlands, www.bitwizard.com, has some excelent products for use with RaspberryPi and Arduino. Their breadboardless system is great for software types trying to break in to the physical computing world. I've recently purchased their RaspberryPi UI, I think it beats the pants off the PiFace interms of usefulness.

I think it would be great if there were some FPGA boards, and lcd projectors for devices like google glass and other wearable computer devices.
