Speaking of AVRs, I notice that Atmel is repeating their one-day free seminar:

I went to this last year, and found it to be an unusually good balance
between marketing and engineering talks.  And while the advertised free
give-aways are pretty nice (last year, a STK-500, this year an AVR
"butterfly"), the seminar may include additional offers for free stuff
(last year I got a STK-594 SLIC daughtercard for the STK-500, but I
missed connecting with the Atmel rep who wanted to hand-deliver the
500, so I'm not exactly operational at the moment :-()
