Want To Learn Embedded Programming

Hey,

I am a software engineer who has mainly worked on non embedded applications. I want to get into embedded programming, but don't really know anything about it or how to get started.

Anybody have any ideas where to begin? I'd like to buy something I can mess with at home.

Any help?

Buy an arduino, maybe an arduino starter kit from one of many sites selling them.

Alternatively, go buy a PIC board.


When you learn how to use those you can buy just the chip without the nice and easy boards attached, which are far cheaper.
