Default Using 401K to fund first-time home purchase...

Is it possible to use 401(k) funds for a first-time home purchase, without penalties?

I realize you would have to pay income taxes on the money, since it's pretax contributed.

Is there a limit on how much can be taken out for this purpose?

Disclaimer: I realize that this is probably frowned upon by the investment community, but I think it's a good idea for my situation.
