AVR-Chat

All,

  I'm currently using a MEGA16 at 16Mhz for a project, and I'm doing a lot
of floating point calculations (most exponential) and its getting a bit
slow, so I need something with a bit more 'umph'.
I know its kinda off topic, but, what I'm after (I think) is something 16Bit
and a minimum of 25MIPs (32 would be preffered). it also *must* have an
affordable C compiler (ie <£400) and an evaluation board. Surface mount is
fine (in fact preffered).
   I figured you guys would be the best place to start asking as you've got
the experience (probably), Anyone have any suggestions?
