I got one of these the other day and I got to say they are pretty cool. 
      You get a PCB about the size of a BASIC STAMP, with 28 pins - it 
could fit into a 28 pin DIP socket.  It has a USB connection on it, a 
cypress USB chip and a PSoC 27443 chip.  It also has a place to add a 5 
pin PSoC programming header to it so that you can program other PSoCs.

You also get a CD with: PSoC Designer 4.0 - the software for designing a 
PSoC application, the programmer software, a "key" for the C compiler, 
documentation and application notes.  Also pretty cool.

I wish that Cypress would continue making this board, it would make a 
worthy addition to our robot tools.
