Rob, that's correct about the PTH parts. On the other version that is still in development I'm needing to use SMD parts to for a boost converter and the USB serial functionality. Since I needed SMD for those I decided to do a lot more SMD with that version. With this shield version I'm able to use all PTH because the Arduino board already has the SMD USB serial chip and power just uses a linear regulator.
Thanks for the tip about shieldlist.org. I'll defiantly do that!
