Hopefully you're already aware, but SparkFun is having a pretty ridiculous event tomorrow - they're giving away $100,000 worth of stuff, with a maximum of $100 per customer.  With only 1000 or so people getting anything free, I'm dubious that it will last very long, but that's not going to stop me from sitting in front of my computer, mouse finger ready, at 9am MST tomorrow morning.  I am going to try to snag some wireless boards and maybe some of their button pads... but I will have to make another survey of the site to decide for sure.  Be sure to post if you manage to get anything!

Agreed, I've been banging my head against an unresponsive server for over an hour now. Let's hear some success stories!

Same here, I got to the payment page and then they hit 100,000.

It was an uphill battle to that page too. I didn't get anything, almost made it to confirm payment.

Oh well, kind of fun while it lasted. I hope their ploy paid off.

Didn't get anything. It's ok though, a majority of what I wanted was out of stock anyway.
