<br></div>40 quid without the Arduino itself... Granted you can pick up most of what is in this kit for pennies. the bit I really liked was the breadboard / arduino holder - really neat.<br><br></div>here are the tutorials that come with the kit<br>

<br></div><div>printing the above out and getting a handful of bits from Maplin and you have your kit.... the hook up wires from Maplin are bloody expensive though<br><br></div><div>Once you have mastered the basics you will want shields... these add functionality like Ethernet to your project<br>
