There has never been a better time to dive into embedded development! The tools are cheap and easy to get a hold of and the amount of learning resources available is mind boggling. Poking around at the hardware level is neither difficult nor expensive, and you can get started at your desk with any of the zillion Arduino-style kits out there. You can leverage your existing development skills in the physical realm and it's all kinds of fun!
