OK, I am going to add my vote for the Arduino also.
In the past 4 years I have always designed my commercial projects with a specific pcb around one of the Atmel AVR family. The hackergoup that I have been attending here in Melbourne Australia for the last year uses Arduinos in various forms.
I am using the Seeeduino mega for my current commercial design and am happy that I decided to do so because I can get to the "show and tell" stage faster than having to lay out a pcb, etc.
Cheers,
Ross

I'm going to second the Arduino (AVR) suggestion.
If there is a local hackerspace in the area, pay them a visit and see what they are using. Your local hackerspace will probably be able to get you up and runninng on the Arduino platform quickly and show you some examples. There's a reason the platform is so popular.
