For anyone that hasn't heard of Sparkfun, it's kinda of like a small Newegg for electronics projects.

I actually bought one of those to try it out back when I started the project. But the price was more like $1.50 from the place I bought it from (RobotShop). Since then, the price has gone up, so I feel ripped off at five bucks, eheh.
