Pin layout preferences on breakout boards

wayneft:
For now I think I'm going to stick with DIP style then.

Dip is good for me. Oh, in case the 10 pins involve 5V gnd analog x, y, z, you can consider putting them all on one side. This way if someone wants, he/she can just plug it in the 6 arduino analog pin and power it with 2 analog pins (set as output and HIGH and LOW respectively) while reading the axes with 3 other analog pins. That's what I do with two of my accelerometers on a temporary basis.
