Wow! the EP2C5T144C8N board is only $14.95AU on ebay!

That a pretty good basis for a CoCo3 FPG design. Just add a daughter
card with the required I/O.

Nick, that's just the FPGA chip, no board. They sell for about that price at Digi-key and Mouser here in the US. Looks like a surface mount chip, so it would be hard to solder into anything at home.
