Hey group,

I have been doing my code developement using a PICkit2 and plain breadboards. I was wondering what you all use to test code ideas with.

LCD, I2C, Dallas OneWire, rotary encoders, etc. etc.

I would like to move up to a reasonably priced board that would allow me to quickly test code and ideas without having to do so much bread board work before I can get started.

I see Microchip makes a PICdem (V1? V2?) is that a good option? or what works best for you all?

Thanks
