anyone know how i would go about in using a solderless bread brd. or
solderless expansion bread brd....i've only read brief synopsis on
them and need a better understanding of how to use 'em and if its
possible to restart projects with the same brd...i'm guessing, that
instead of soldering an IC to the brd. u would just plug the
solderless expansion brd. on top of the solderless brd. which snaps or
plugs into the BOE brd. or if its a solderless brd.; just plug the IC
directly on top of it; should i just go with the BOE and stick to
soldering myself?...any info. would be appreciated....

    Are you going to build something permanent or play around with it? I would
    go with the solderless breadboard for playing -- you can always buy a PC
    board etched like the breadboard if you find a circuit you want to make
    permanent.

    thanx for the info, while im at it do u know where i could find
    schematics or a materials list for putting together an activity brd.
    or a BOE brd.; i am in the process of trying to put together my first
    BS2sxOEM and would like to also put together the Bread Board and
    components...

    there is a schematic of the Activity Board on the Parallax web site. Go to
    the downloads area and browse around. I'll bet there is one for the BOE
    also.
