* Room around the PIC site to accomodate an Aries
ZIF socket, and a parallel port programming circuit,
sort of like the Micro Engineering Labs EPIC or the
Parallax/TechTools programmer?  Perhaps the board
could be designed so that it could be used as an extra
general-purpose PIC programming board to have around,
once one is past the eval stage.

* Sockets and/or sites for a external parallel-to-serial
and serial-to-parallel latchs (both hooked on the serial
side to the PIC with 2x8 connection header on the opposite
side), I2C EEPROM, LM34/35.

* Circuit to convert a thermistor value to an analog input
on the PIC, so you can just plug the thermistor into, say,
a screw-down header.

* Site for a general-purpose instrumentation amplifier
(e.g. AD627) and associated gain-setting resistors.

FWIW.
