Adafruit Proto Shield for Arduino Kit - v.5

This prototyping shield is the best out there (well, I think so, at least). It works with NG, Diecimila and Duemilanove Arduinos.
Check out these awesome specifcations:

• It has a nice standard 0.1"x0.1" prototying grid with big pads
• A IC pattern for adding DIP ICs up to 20 pins
• Power rails down the middle and sides
• A reset button and an extra general use button
• 2 3mm general use LEDs, red and green, as well as 2 matching resistors
• The ICSP header is up top if you like to upload to your Arduino using a programmer
• A surface-mount chip area for up to 14 SOIC size parts
• Compatible with either tiny breadboards or 'standard' breadboards with the rails removed.
• Every pin is brought out, including the new 3V and Reset header pins
• 2 0.1uF capacitors on either side for extra power stability

Comes as a kit of parts, however its very easy to assemble even for begining solderers. More information & instructions are available here.

Arduino and breadboards are not included!
