Product Description
The Arduino Uno is a microcontroller board based on the ATmega328. It has 14 digital input/output pins (of which 6 can be used as PWM outputs), 6 analog inputs, a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with a AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started

GOOD: This is indeed the Rev-3 UNO board with the reset button in the upper left corner. It arrived very quickly and seems to work well so far. My C-language test "sketches" (apps) downloaded and ran on the first attempt, using the version 1.0 software download. The components and PCB appear cosmetically to be of reasonably good quality, but ...
BAD: The soldering workmanship is very disappointing; the worst I've ever seen in a production job. SMT devices on the top seem to be mounted OK, but the bottom of the board had numerous defects in the (wave?) soldering. Two of these joints appear to have been manually touched up (residual flux present). Several other joints had large gaps in cold solder joints, but were apparently not bad enough to warrant manual repair. I hope the Italian manufacturer (SMART PROJECTS) works out these process kinks soon.
*** UPDATE July 2012 *** My subsequent purchase of an UNO-R3 board indicates that the soldering issues in early production boards have been solved. (FYI, CanaKit is an approved distributor for Arduino.)
The Arduino concept is terrific, and has enabled a LOT of people to easily create smart projects. The C compiler and IDE work well; I've never had an easier time writing an embedded application, and the price can't be beat. The only thing lacking is the ability to debug code via single-step.

The R3 change over to an Atmel part instead of the robust and time proven FTDI part seems to need a bit more work. The driver on my XP laptop comes and goes and I often get errors while trying to download code onto the board. I'm sure this can and will be fixed as time goes by but for now (October 2012) it is a problem.
It turned out the problem was on my computer. Two ports were getting assigned for the driver and neither matched what the Arduino SW thought the port was. When I manually set the port number via the device manager, it all worked fine. Just sucked up a lot of my time to finally get there.

This is the best price I could find for an Authentic Arduino R3 on the web.
Plus Free Super Saver Shipping through Amazon makes it an even better deal.
It is a genuine Arduino R3 Made in Italy.
Appears to be a high quality build. Soldering looks perfect.
Screen print on the board identifying I/O connections is excellent and easy to read.
For that matter all of the screen printing looks great.
Latest version. Uses the ATMEGA328P.
Tested and works just as it should!
Comes packaged in a colorful little box. Includes small folded booklet with statements regarding manufacturing, testing, packaging & environmental impact, certificate of origin, warranty information, etc..
Also includes 6 open source and arduino round logo stickers.
What more can be said? It is open source and there are tons of projects that can be found online
With lots of information detailing how to put the projects together.
My opinion is it is one of the best platforms to learn on and great for all skill levels really.
Overall great purchase. Open source is the way to go.
Update: The Arduino Uno R3 I reviewed was purchased through Amazon from the seller NKC Electronics

ORIGINAL ITALAIAN BOARD
This is an authentic Italian board, not a knock off.
Works perfect. Watch out for knock offs that are "designed in Italy".

Low cost Arduino
Given the price it's a little hard to believe it's the genuine article and one of two failed out of box. OTOH the vendor cheerfully refunded my money for the bad one. Read more

Leads to hobby and learning
The Arduino takes continued learning to find projects to do, but each offers a gain in knowledge re electronics or programming.
