Well I keep finding cool stuff and get sidetracked from current projects, but this has gone to the top of my list. http://www.adafruit....products_id=285 Can I use that with the netduino? It would be extremely awesome if I could stick it to some clothing and make cool paterns.

That will work just fine with the Netduino. You will need to lay out a switching circuit on some protoboard/breadboard, though.

Yes, but you will need externall power supply, because most of these RGB strips require 12V. And to control brightness of individual RGB channels the LED driver chip will be best. There is already library for the Allegro A6281 based boards:
