 Nobody likes Newark, so use them as a last resort. They'​ll charge you $25 to ship a small cardboard box by UPS ground. Grrr.  More of a traditional distributor,​ less in stock but can stock items if you order large quantities. Nobody likes Newark, so use them as a last resort.

 +(Oct.2010) -- I've found Newark to be pretty good. Useful Web interface (sortable results in all categories, including price), and prices frequently better than Mouser or DigiKey, particularly for smaller quantities. They will now ship via USPS, FedEx, or UPS ground, starting at about $5, depending on weight. Seem to be pretty good about in-stock items too.

 +Yet another. Does seem to specialize in hobbyists. Has its own line of branded commodity parts. Many components only sold in large quantities (e.g.: resistors only available in packages of 100 but they are $1.50-$2 for the package).
