maxim/dallas national semi RFMD with LOTS of questions Sensirion-humidity & temp sensors It depends on your application most companies are quite good about giving a few samples away if they know you are going to buy more off them in the long run and the general consensus is look after most because you never know who is going to be buying 100k quantities off you in 12 months time, even if its not of the exact part your sampling.....for hobbyist runs not sure how obliging they are gunna be, (got any friends in big companies?) good luck tho.
