I am using schmartboard for last 2 months and its technology is a bit 
interesting. You can make a full prototype board joining their 2"x2" 
boards all together. Although it is easy and smooth technology; but it 
would be a bit expensive from the soldering view.  

I am a student and don't wish to let the $s go away for prototyping. 
So, I use adhesive method (no soldering) to join my chips on 
schmartboard. In this case I don't have to worry about short circuit, 
painful soldering process (at least to me), chip wastage etc. 
And it works great. 
 
So, from adhesive view schmartboard is cheaper than other proto 
systems. 

Thanks.
