Hi,

I myself am in the process of moving from AVR development to the ARM 
LPC2000 series.  I look forward to it very much although the AVR 
series is brilliant and has served me dearly (!).  I will continue 
using the AVR for smaller projects.

My intention is to start with a simple development board for the 
LPC2106. Take a look at www.olimex.com under MSP PIC AVR.  There is 
a section with ARM development boards for different members of the 
LPC2000 family.  They will have a development board available soon 
for the LPC2214 which has external memory - very exciting! I have 
had very good experience with OLIMEX in the past and they offer good 
products at a very good price. 
Olimex also offers a ARM-JTAG dongle for programming and recommends 
using  CrossWork for ARM from Rowley Associates (www.rowley.co.uk)

This is the path I intend to take.  Hope this helps.
