I went over to Sparkfun to see what new shiny stuff they've released this week. I see that they now are selling the 3.5 and 3.6 with headers soldered onto the board (and in fact are nearly sold out of the 3.5/3.6's without headers). So if you are solder challenged and were ordering other stuff from Sparkfun, you can now have them do the soldering.
PJRC.com has always offered an option for soldering in the pins, but its nice to see the option available at the larger distributors. In fact, the option to have the pins soldered on was one of the things that first drew me to the Teensy 3.0 kickstarter. Fortunately, I have progressed somewhat in my soldering skills, but it still takes me much longer than I've seen others do it. .
