FAI has 16C61-04-P in stock (4M plastic) for $3.92 (min. 25 order).  The JW is $
13.68
no min.  I just ordered 25p's and two JW's.  Their number is 303-237-1400 or
1-800-303-5701.  Ask for Chris or Nancy.  They have good prices on other PICs al
so.
If someone can't  afford 25 then contact me, I'll see what we can work out.

This sounds great, but there is no '61 in the DIGI-KEY catalog. Where do
you get it?
