I got a few arduino boards too.... Tested a small program to run motors and for sensors to pick up objects - quite interesting, and easy too. I have not done much, but I have played with them abit. These things are quite robust - and one small board like the "arduino duemilanove" or the great "atmega" - can do quite a lot - not discounting:
digital analogue serial parallel
Input and output. Such boards are the things that create those car-tracking devices and car-alarms, not forgetting the door and window sensors. Its practically a computer in itself that you can use to run things remotely. Guys should really look at this. w/regards SNN
