Not the past decade, but two decades ago (2005) the z80 was still popular. At work, I was working on a product based on, IIRC, a Rabbit Semiconductor product, which was a module with on-chip ethernet. It was a Z80 running at 40Mhz.
Personally, I also had a little siemens organiser thing, that also was z80 based (not sure of the actual specs). I recall trying to write programs for it and failing (may not have been open; no way to reprogram or download new code to it, maybe).
[EDIT: The organiser was a siemens IC35]
