Yeah, the nice thing about the Adafruit board is it's really tiny, and I
get the impression it's less fuss to program.  You've been using the
STM32?  Is there much headache getting it booted and running, without
some monstrous dev environment from Keil or whatever?

I do have an MSP430 Launchpad but with 16k flash / 512B ram, some of the
tiny ATmega boards are actually more powerful (plus smaller).  I guess
the next thing up in very small boards is the Teensy 3.0.

My immediate application for the attiny board involves just monitoring a
few sensors and triggering an output pin on certain sensor events.  An 8
bitter seems fine for that.
