Not too many ARM platforms out there, they are wicked expensive!
It just costs too much to get into the industry. Aside from ARM, the actual chips are cheap. The components are cheap. The PCB is cheap. Solder is cheap. If FIRST and IFI want to be proactive about getting more people into this, they need to supply a cheap, entry-level system that people can AFFORD!

ARM is actually quite inexpensive ! See the TiniARM Dev Boards from $29 - $70 from newmicros.com or Spark Fun .
