As an amateur, what do you need in the .Net Micro Framework hardware kit?

As an amateur working on embedded systems / robotics. What would you like to see as the hardware features of the Micro Framework development kit? I saw a lot of questions about what is available, and nothing really about what is missing. I also find that most existing kits are more focused on product development than amateur ones.

Are modular designs using IDC / jumper blocks better or do you prefer inline components? How many GPIO pins? It may be useful to use some form of memory mapped device? Would you see the use of more than one SPI bus? What wireless / serial protocols would you like to see?

Are you talking about things like FEZ or Netduino boards ?

I think they did an incredibly wonderful job.

For robotics, I would like the development board to have a built-in H-bridge (for engine control), I2C, SPI, serial, small LCD (for menus, etc.), ZigBee and / or Bluetooth.

I have always loved my Parallax Development. I could not find what I bought a few years ago ... but it is close.

To improve it, it would be nice if he had a few more operational amplifiers. I like the way you have all the external peripherals that you can quickly connect to the layout.
