Looking for a cleaner LCD / Arduino shield solution, I stumbled across the Serial-Enabled LCD kit.

This is quite the misnomer for what it is. SparkFun has used a standard ATMega 328 chip controlling the serial-to-parallel interface. Basically, this is an Arduino with an LCD - no extra shield, and no extra frills needed. I called up some friends and we soldered up 8 of these guys in one night. While we were at it, we soldered on a right-angle male header to the side so that we could access the FTDI programming pins, too.
