techra:
i have to buy an arduino board with more i/o pins and a better clock cycle,so was looking at mega, but the recent launch of due, has confused me,should i go for due?..wont there be some bugs present in it?
I may not represent a "typical" Arduino user because I love to hack at the boards and libraries at the processor and bit level.
I'm just finally getting comfortable with the ATMEGA registers and layout... nothing I've written would work on a DUE board, so for me personally I would buy a MEGA2560 over a DUE.
It's difficult enough to acquire and maintain (and hack) the "classic" Arduino libraries without having to deal with another whole new set.
As long as the "high level" stuff (like analogRead, EEPROM, Serial.xx, etc..) all work on a DUE, then the DUE is probably the better choice.
My 2 cents......
