Nobody have an idea?

I'm living in Turkey and sometimes I can't find some electronics parts. I want to learn where you buy electronics parts that you cant find in your country (if you have any problems like this :P ). Which web site do you advice me to buy electronics parts? Do you have any problems with these sites? Especially I cant find adapter for Compact Flash, USB "B type" Adapter, Graphical "Color" or "Black and White" LCDs(bigger than 128*64) and some ICs...

I didn't use any schematic or layout program. Some of my friends on internet advice EAGLE. Do you think it is a good choice? P.S. : I have started to learn EAGLE and I don't have any problems. And I heard all manufacturers use BoardMaker in my city. Is there any way to convert EAGLE layout format to BoardMaker format? Or Do all programs use same formats? Thanks for your help...

I have great interest on electronics. I learned basic knowledge about electric and electronic from school. We made some little laboratory experiment. And I'm good at computer programming. Especially on Lower and Middle Level Programming like assembly,c, c++. And I worked on PIC16F84 a little. Now I want to learn more about electronics. Then I want to learn embedded systems. Where can I start from? Now I'm working on schematic and Board design on EAGLE. I'm going to learn more about PIC, and make more specific things on it. So I can learn more about electric and electronics. Is it right?If it is, Then I am going to learn Embedded systems. Do you think it is right thing to do? If not, can you advice another way to learn electronics and embedded systems for someone who has lower intermediate knowledge about electronics? ???
