This is a brand new architecture and will not be stocked at Digikey until later
this year (I am not authorized to give you dates).  If you are really
interested, you should contact your Microchip Field Application Engineer.  One
nice thing about these first 18Cxxx parts is that they are pin-for-pin,
instruction-for-instruction drop-in upgrades for 16c7x type products that are
running out of "horsepower" in terms of RAM and ROM.  Of course, you can also
take advantage of the new features by optimizing your code.

Though the initial chips in this series are defined, user's applications will
drive peripherals, etc. on future versions.
