Unpopulated UNO R3 board?

johnwasser:
Perhaps the iTead Studios bare Duemilanove, MEGA 1280, or Nano 3.0 boards would be close enough?

Update to this topic:

I (finally) received the Duemilanove boards I ordered (came on a slow boat from China - literally) :slight_smile:

I had already purchased a Sparkfun ISP board, so I didn't need to build my own (THEN I bought an Atmel AVRISP MKII) so I don't need the Sparkfun board either so......

I installed a bare minimum of parts on a board (28 pin socket, 16 mhz resonator, 10K reset pullup and a 6 pin ISP header).

Now I have a VERY inexpensive and Uno compatible generic microcontroller that I can use for student projects!

Problem is right now ITead is sold out of those boards (and I only ordered 5 of them) :frowning:

Hopefully they will have more sometime soon......
