Another option if you want to play with crypto on an FPGA is Microsemi's *Fire
line, which provide the crypto both as highly optimised side-channel-attack-
resistant hard cores and soft cores.  So you could use the soft core to verify
the hard core, and then the hard core to do the actual work.  See e.g:

http://soc.microsemi.com/products/ip/search/detail.aspx?id=895

The FPGAs run in the $100-400 range, which isn't bad for what you're getting.

(There's more than this out there from other vendors, I just had a datasheet
for a PolarFire lying on the desk).
