I dunno - the ARM seems kind of cool. If it can't handle the DSP I need, my backup plan is to put it into an FPGA. Oh yeah, there's an ARM ref board, but it costs $450 (although I can get a loaner for 30 days). The Blackfin has an eval board for $150. I'm def. a cheapskate, so I like the blackfin board - but I'm not letting that make my mind up.

Lots of different ARM eval boards around. I've been playing a little with an Atmel AT91EB40A ($198 from Digi-Key). Unfortunately the customer has, for the moment anyway, lost interest in that line of development...
