Never heard of them, but considering I've never soldered either its understandable that it looks like a great product to me

I have heard of them but I haven't used them before. At $10 a piece I figured it would be better for me to just try to solder on a Sparkfun 28 pin SMT breakout board for $3 dollars for another project. With the help of liberal amounts of flux my results turned out really well for a first timer although I do have a little bit of through-hole experience. If I could find a distributor that had an in-stock AT91SAM7X512 I might consider a SchmartBoard but I haven't been able to find one... When I do find a part then I would probably purchase a SchmartBoard just for the convenience since there are no other cheap breakout board alternatives that offer that many pin-outs at a competitive price regardless of being easy to solder.
