I am considering Mbed
Is there a list of supported devices? Is there a charge for the IDE or compiler? If free are there any limitations on the free compiler or IDE?

Supported devices are here:

Yes the compiler is free to use and no limitations and very easy to use, no software installation required for the on-line compiler.
Ask if you need help to choose a board (platform), they can be very different and will depend on what you would like to do.
Mbed only directly supports mbed boards. However the schematics of those boards are normally available and so if you are using the same processor you can normally duplication the demo board design sufficiently for the code to be portable.
Supporting other processors is a little trickier, the libraries are open source and so in theory you can modify them to work with any part but obviously the complexity increases the further you get from a supported part.
