I've been using a couple of Cortex-M3 evaluation boards from Luminary
Micro (now part of Texas Instruments), specifically the the LM3S1968
and LM3S6965 (that one has ethenet).  The peripherals are
straightforward (if you understand Timer1 on an AVR, the timers on the
LM3S micros are easy to use, for example) and most of the range run to
50MHz (the ICs warm up, though), with some now running upto 100MHz.
TI supply a peripheral library called StellarisWare, which gives you
everything from register and bit definitions to peripheral-specific
macros to make life very easy.

And the boards are quite cheap.
