Depends what you ultimately intend to build.

The simplest/most off-the-shelf and possibly cheapest route is to buy a 
Compaq iPaq pocket PC, which runs on a StrongARM. Considerable 
experimentation with non-CE OSs has been performed on the iPaq.

We use the ITE 8152F evaluation board, which includes a StrongARM 1110 and 
an ITE 8152F PCI bridge (among other things), since our target application 
for the SA1110 requires PCI.
