A new meetup group has formed in Melbourne, Australia - Hackduino. Meeting around once every four weeks at North Melbourne.
I just signed up, not that I plan to be in Melbourne any time soon but you never know, I do get around a bit

The next Melbourne Hackduino meetup is schedule for Thursday, October 25th. "Show and tell", etc.
The Melbourne "Hackduino" events are now scheduled for once a month - see http://www.meetup.com/Hackduino-Electronics-Meetup-Group/
I'm also running a workshop for beginners on interfacing basic hardware with Arduino. It's for absolute beginners and there are a few places left.
