I was able to purchase one of the prototype units for $99 and some change, plus shipping. It included the circuit board with PIC and supporting circuitry, DB-9 and RJ connectors and "program" push button. Along with the kit was a serial cable and the 6 wire "telephone" style cable. The last item was the same MPLAB CD that comes with the FRC kits. It did not include the Easy-C software that will come with the kit from Radio Shack. But I would truly love to get a copy of that as well. I will be teaching a few new students an intro to programming this year and, from what little I have seen, it looks like a great learning tool.
Sorry, but I have no clue what the production kit will sell for.
