Atmega32u4 DIP??

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is a DIP version of the Atmega32u4, like the other atmegachips.
Also, I heard that the 32u4 has native usb support - does that mean I don't need an ftdi to program it? just wire it directly to the usb port pins?

32U4 is not available in a DIP. SMD packages only.

It can connect to USB directly. Check the schematics on the Products page for Leonardo or Micro.
