I never could see the point to those. It's much easier just build up
your device using the bare chip. If one of the big AVRs, such as one
of the XMegas, it might make some sense in helping to deal with
handling an SMT package, sort of the way the ARM stamps do.
The whole point of the Arduino is to make it accessable to those that
don't have the knowledge to build up their own board. It's a great
beginner platform.
