The best place to look for ideas is on MAKE.

Personally, I haven't bought into this movement, or the Arduino movements, but that might be because I am a hardware engineer, and would rather design and build my own platform. I guess these appeal to the non-electronics guys who just want to program.

People programming embedded devices though need to learn memory management skills. On embedded systems memory is not infinite.

I have also never programmed for a Linux environment, so that's kind of a problem for me.

My son's school is starting a Raspberry Pi club though, so maybe I should try to figure out if there is something really great about it that I am missing.

What does turn my crank though is this TI watch dev kit:
