And you can either buy it on DigiKey, Mouser, Future, or directly from Atmel. Note that nowadays if you buy it directly from Atmel, it get dispatched by DigiKey. This is much better for us actually, because now shipping is cheaper from DigiKey than when Atmel used to ship from Malaysia by DHL. Also, it means that DigiKey should have better stock of Atmel's eval boards.

So, if you are not buying enough boards to justify the s/h charge, or you have something else you also want to buy, like LEDs, Hall Sensor chips etc., you are better off buying directly from DigiKey, as you can't buy these non Atmel stuff from Atmel store.

What's not so good with DigiKey is that they would charge me sales tax, but Mouser (in Texas) does not. But Mouser doesn't have as good stock as Digikey. A lot of times I can't get some Atmel boards or Melexis Hall chips from Mouser, so I am forced to buy them from DigiKey and get charged sales tax.

So, try Mouser first, then DigiKey, then Atmel.
