it is possible to get samples from: Atmel (FPSLIC), Actel, Altera, Lattice
and Xilinx however you are probably easier to just buy what you want, both
xilinx and altera have FPGAs in their online shops, prices start from about
10USD

optionally it may actually make more sense to buy some low low cost eval
board

avnet S3e board is 69USD

89EUR spartan3 module

http://www.hardware-design.de/produkte.html

there are lattice cheap boards 60EUR or so

at 99-149 USD price there are many more

you can of course do the board yourself

sometimes ebay has FPGAs are low low price, so I made my first 2Million Gate
FPGA board with 49USD pulled BGA what I got from ebay

its all up to you, if you have no FPGAs and no FPGA boards I suggest buying
the first eval board, either TREX C1 or then wait for the Xilinx Spartan3E,
of if your budget is below 100USD then choose from other offerings
