I dunno if anyone other than Zonn will like this, but since some of us are
using PIC's for various projects...
Check out www.parallaxinc.com and look at the "SX Key" announcements.
It's a 16C54 (PIC) compatible chip, with 10 new instructions, Flash memory
with *in-circuit* programmability, source/sink 30mA per pin, analog
comparator, 2K words Flash, 136 words RAM, internal oscillator at 4MHz,
External *50MHz* clock optional w/ 1 cycle per instruction, 12mA @ 50MHz at
5V. Development system with full-speed ICE is $249.
I think I'm in love.
Also in the kinda interesting department-- Microchip has on their website
an application note for an ADPCM decoder on a PIC which is kinda neat...
