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!

Soldering and building a protoshield video…
Hans and Umbach writes - …the boys soldered together an Arduino Proto Shield kit from Adafruit. You can witness their amazing efforts in super-speed time, where sixty minutes of inhaling metallic fumes has been condensed into three power-packed minutes!
Arduino Mega (Atmega1280 – assembled) & Arduino Mega protoshield
By popular demand! We are now carrying the Mega. The Mega is basically a big brother to the Arduino Duemilanove (& similar), with many more pins, UARTs, PWMs, etc. If you’ve run out of pins on your Arduino or you need 128k of flash (compared to 32k!) you will find this a good upgrade!
