Here's a really interesting platform for VLF SDR work:

        http://www.seeedstudio.com/depot/dso-nano-v2-p-681.html?cPath=174

1MSPS 12 bit ADC, input amplifier/attenuator, display, USB interface,
and rechargeable lithium battery.

For $89...

Too bad it doesn't have a 10MHz reference clock input for time-nuttery.
