Guys,
Thanks for the tips.
While I did first do the dead bug approach on the 3x3mm IC, I'm afraid
to breath on the board for fear that a connection will be lost.
Looking over the SPARK FUN stuff, I was able to find a breakout board
for a wider chip that allows half (one side) of the pins to

A small British company is now making RF prototyping boards that have
square pads on a 0.1in grid,
I have 2 of these boards and they are as described and very useful.

after a while you realize you are muddy and the pig is enjoying it.

Just how does one breadboard something with IC SMT parts having 0.025
(or other similarly small) lead spacing? I have a few projects here
that require this.
I was just thinking of gluing the chip dead bug fashion to the
breadboard and soldering tiny wires to the leads.
The problem is that
Depending on your needs and budget, something like these might work.

True, there's no one-size-fits-all solution, but something like the P502 would
give you a variety of patterns.
I believe Mouser and Jameco stock their products.

Mouser carries it, and I imagine DigiKey and others as well.
It's tedious to use, but what isn't when prototyping with

I am not sure they have precisely what you are looking for, but
Sparkfun has
Brian,
Have you investigated Manhatten construction That is adaptable to SMT
parts. Yes, the IC is usually mounted dead-bug fashion. If you bend
the leads in or out so that alternate leads are bent in and the otheer
out, you have double the error distance when soldering.
