The boards given away at WinHEC and PDC for Windows 7 sensor development are now available for sale from Freescale:

These are a great way to experiment with the new sensors such as light, gyroscope, and accelerometer. The price is pretty fair, and it’s a nice compact board. Even better, the Windows API Code Pack support it nicely in managed code.
Have fun!
