Yes, they seem to have made a pig's ear of the buying part of the web site.

Sadly not!  I received one of these recently (after being out of stock, so this may be from the first 
production run) and you get the board itself, the usual: list of contents / registration card / pink "Read 
First" sheet, plus an A6 leaflet specific to this board.

The latter has a list of the jumpers' functions and defaults, the "Signal Interface" connections, and a note 
that to get "Other information" and example Firmware for particular development boards you should go to 
http://www.microchip.com/Ethernet/. 

"Other Information" is listed as: User's Guide, Source Code, Board Description, Application Examples, Board 
Schematics, and Links to Web Site Seminars.

I have been to the web site a number of times but so far I haven't been able to find most of this...  perhaps 
it's early days, and they are in the process of producing this stuff?
