I own one of these and I love it. I just wish the openings for the micro USB and composite video were a bit bigger. My composite video cable plugs in but won't go all the way. This is the one I have: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0033SN3PU/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i01
Anyhow, these things are minor nuances that can easily be fixed by a Dremel or perhaps an Exacto knife.

Just buy three and wrap them with duct tape. ;) ~wink~

These modules use ASK modulation, therefore there must be a balance between 1's and 0's otherwise you will transmit/receive junk.
Before transmitting the actual data, you should first send a short preamble of 1's and 0's so that the receiver tunes in.
Also, you may want to use a 4-to-6 bit encoding scheme to maintain the DC balance I mentioned earlier. That is, for every 4 bit combination, you will have a 6 bit word with balanced 1's and 0's that you will use instead. Don't just send four 0's straight or the receiver will desynchronize. -
I developed a simple-yet-comprehensive library for Arduino to use this sensor.
It contains two examples, one that basically just reads the axes and a more advanced one that uses the interrupt functionality of the ITG-3200.
You can find a feature list on the README file.

M-Short, I believe you meant Numeral Systems instead of Number Systems for the title of this tutorial.

Indeed. Breadboards are NOT suitable for high speed digital circuits because of the capacitance between each row.
Here's how the inside of a breadboard looks (from Wikipedia): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Insidebreadboard_(5).jpg
So it's not literally a strip of metal. -
Recently I started building a Quadcopter.
Here's a block diagram containing all sensors, motors, batteries, etc.: https://docs.google.com/drawings/edit?id=1t06OLpFYCFmdNXOrJuLWWpwrayv5raJKaqBrnbuiRJ4&hl=en -
Aww... these went out of stock right when I was ready to buy one :s
No public wish lists :(
