Well my local Lattice Semi rep made me an offer I could'nt refuse;
ispDesignExpert full commercial package ($$$) for free ;-)

   I have years of experience with Lattice and had been using their starter
software which has many of the features of the commercial package but
notably lacked VHDL/Verilog HDL synthesis and simulation. So now I'm looking
for a good book on VHDL to get up to speed as soon as possible. I've studied
a lot of VHDL code in recent years but I would like a good reference. I'm
also interested in any web-based sites that cover the language. I seem to
recall Cypress (?) $99 package use to come with a good book on the subject.
Thanks.

   BTW, there was some interest in my SRAM Address Generator and Chip Select
CPLD based on the Lattice ispLSI1016E. At the time I noticed that the price
had gone up $2 at one distributor and $4 at the other. My rep says that's
ridiculous and the price for single units should be $6 dropping to $4 in
small quantity so I may consider selling programmed parts. Again, you can
download the JEDEC file for free and you can build a simple download cable
and get the download software for free. For more info, see my web page at:
