aren't nearly as many inexpensive development boards for the -6 yet.
I haven't yet seen any inexpensive Spartan-6 boards that seem
comparable to the Digilent Spartan-3E or Spartan-3A boards, in terms
of FPGA capacity, on-board peripheral interfaces/connectors, and
availability of GPIO pins on connectors.
I've been looking at the Ztex board--plenty of I/Os and $140, but I
suppose it all depends upon one's needs.
