[avr-chat] AVRs in South Africa?

[Rodney Arne Karlsen]

Hi all

Sorry if this is a bit off topic, but I'm kinda at my wits end. I am trying to 
find somewhere in South Africa, preferably in Durban, to get Atmel AVRs in a 
PDIP package. I contacted Arrow Altech and they only had surface mount, and 
EBV wanted me to buy a minimum of like 300 and even then they took a week or 
more to respond to my emails.

Right now I am prototyping a device that we hope to produce in quantity later 
on but for now I can only justify buying a maximum of 10 AVRs.  I'm looking 
for proces on the parts below. The mega8 and mega48 parts are for 2 USB-ISP 
units I wanna build for use in the workshop. The device I'm designing would 
use the ATMega324 or ATmega644 device. 

ATmega324PV-10PU
ATmega324PV-20PU
ATmega644PV-10PU
ATmega644PV-20PU
ATmega8L-8PC
ATmega8-16PC
ATmega48V-10PI
ATmega48-20PI

Any ideas where I can get these parts and how much they would be? If need be 
I'll order them from outside the  country if I have to and I can get them 
here pretty quickly.

Thanks
