LighTake has the Arduino Compatible UNO Rev3 Development Board for $15 - 5% off with coupon code TJOOS = $14 with free shipping. Features 14 digital input/output pins, 6 analog inputs, and a 16 MHz crystal oscillator. A neat little gadget for roboticists and hobbyists.
I bought the kit that includes this board from LighTake. It's actually a really nice kit. Though the board is a KIRF (keeping it real fake). It's branded up to look like an Arduino board but is in fact not made by them. Though that doesn't really matter, as this hardware/software framework is open source.
So far so good with my board.
At this price it makes it competitive with other dev boards out there. Namely, the Raspberry PI.
Also, it ships from China. Mine took 3 weeks to arrive plus 4 days working with USPS to deliver it to my home. The company sends the mail registered which requires a direct signature unless you have the right form.

Thank you for the review, +1 goes to you. Eff you for using "kirf", an engadget-born abomination of an acronym, -1 is taken from you for that.
