I got a prototype zifduino, its an arduino, but with a zif socket on it. This makes it ideal for prototyping, and them simply popping the chip out, and putting it in a more permanent fixture once the software is complete. It will also be good for flashing lots of chips, verifying them, then using them. It is a prototype, but I think its fun helping the designer and providing feedback. I should have the next version of the zifduino as well, since there will probably be a few cycles till the boards is complete.
Eventually I will make some of my own boards, I hoping to learn a little in this process as well.
