Avr help

hello rickey!
i want to start with avr microcontroller. but i hav no idea with which i must start.u plz give me some info.

i also like AVR, because it's very powerful and have lot's of features.
if u want to start from basic then use at90s2313
read datasheet carefully ,try to understand whole architecture and each peripherals. my opinion is that the datasheet is the best way to get knowledge rather then any book.
it will be more better because this will same on every AVR's with little difference
then if you want to use asm for programming then use AVRstudio from Atmel website, it's free.
but i like 'c' . and most amazing thing is the AVR series is optimized for 'C'.
and you can use Winavr for 'C' , it's also free and best.

so best of luck
