Hello,
We used a pumpkin board (the one with a PIC24). Worked pretty well. One thing we noted was that we couldn't get it into the stated low power state of 25 uA. We were trying to stretch our batteries by entering this state. The lowest we got was 5 mA.
They make a bunch of boards with different chipsets, and maybe that 25uA value was for another chip.
YMMV
