Back about a year ago, when I was starting my senior capstone project, guys from Cypress were pushing the PSOC pretty heavily. It seems like they're trying to target the college kids so that when they go out into industry they can say "hey, I know how to use this, and it would work in this application."
The PSoC is a really interesting family of chips, and I would highly recommend checking them out to anyone who is interested in mixed signal. I really wish I had known about this during my sophemore year - I did a couple of labs that were "PIC + op-amps + filters + rats nest" that could have easily been "PSoC".
