Wow, thanks. I didn't know a German Digikey website existed. 18 Euros
shipping, 13 Euros handling charge (for orders under 100�) - still
cheaper than the other sources I knew.
Thank you very much, and thanks also to the other people who replied!

johannes

On the other hand, we are looking for distributors in Europe, rather
than shipping directly from the U.S. The custom forms and trips to
the post office are quite time consumming.

Not sure about the price cut-off, but we have been shipping to Europe
duty-free so far. (~50 USD). PCB are not heavily with tariff yet.
Perhaps, the custom offices don't want to bother with low cost items.

Is the 120 Euro with or without VAT.?
If you ship something from the U.S, then the VAT may be added by your local
customs officer...
In sweden, the VAT is 25 %.
At www.elfa.se, the ATSTK500 is 97 Euro.

Maybe try www.dontronics.com. All the US-based places I can think of
will charge you a LOT for shipping.
Or I can buy one for you and mail it via USPS :)

Hi Johannes,
Looks the Chameleon POD on www.amontec.com .
Yes, it is a little bit expensive (EUR159.-), but the Chameleon POD can
works as
- a STK500 for AVR
- a Raven JTAG for all ARM, MIPS, XSCALE ...
- a Wiggler JTAG for all ARM, MIPS and many more
- a DownloadISP for all Lattice FPGA, CPLD
- a ParallelCableIII for all Xilinx FPGA
- a ByteBlaster for all Altera FPGA, CPLD
- a true I2C Master controller
- a true SPI Master controller
The Chameleon POD is based on programmable logic. So it can emmulate all
actual parallel port dongles. It is a Generic Dongle Solution !
Regards,
Larry

Hello,
Since the Atmel STK500 is much cheaper in the US than in Europe (79USD
in the US, around 120EUR in Europa are the prices I found) I'd need a
recommendation for a good webshop in the US. Of course it should be
cheap ;), reliable. Shipping and handling shouldn't be too expensive
(to the US, not to Europe; I'd ex-/import it myself).
Thank you very much for any hints and tips!

johannes
