Scatter plot matrices with multiple variables in R

I know pairs(df) is a great way to do scatter plots in finding possible correlations in variables with say about max 10 variables, but is there a way to plot scatter plots for say 200 variables?

as @AlexA suggested, one way:

n <- 5
ii <- cumsum(seq.int(ncol(mtcars)) %% n == 0)

pdf('~/desktop/tmp.pdf')
for (i in unique(ii))
  pairs(mtcars[, ii %in% i])
dev.off()

or to get a quick look at them

for (i in unique(ii)) {
  pairs(mtcars[, ii %in% i])
  Sys.sleep(2)
}
