If you buy direct from the vendor you can get the Mojo v2 for only $50 this month.
http://embeddedmicro.com/development-boards/mojo-v2.htmlThe SMD programming port doesn't have any strain relief so you need to be very careful with it - I'd recommend sanding off the little metal tabs from the micro plug to make it easier to insert/remove so that you don't rip the port right off from the board.
The v3 has a different micro-USB port that used through-hole tabs for significantly better strain relief. Other than that, it is essentially the same as the v2. The v2 are on sale in order to clear out that inventory since only the v3 is sold through sparkfun/adafruit.
I have a v2 and it's been a great intro to FPGA's (backed the Kickstarter campaign). Yes, I ripped the SMD port off my first one, but have been much more careful with my new board and haven't damaged it yet. Also got the LED matrix shield, which is a little bit expensive (costs more than the board) but is a nice design.
