Hi group,
having returned home safely from my business trip to south-east asia I would like to throw 
in my two euro cents on this topic as well.

The reasons why I joined this group:

a) I wanted to learn new things about new radio design
b) I wanted to have fun learning new things about new radio design
c) I wanted to have fun doing everything involved in learning new things about new radio 
design
d) I wanted to even learn how to solder fine pitch smd parts if this is required in the 
process of learning new things about new radio design
e) see a) to d)

The price of learning always will be that you make mistakes and again learn from these 
mistakes even if it ends up to cost more than a readily available assembled board. 
Learning you do not get for free (free as in 'costs nothing') but the fun of learning is 
almost invaluable.

So my vote will be for

1. bare PCB
2. bare PCB plus hard-to-get parts kit
