Hey thanx for that! I've downloaded the data sheet from Microchip. Had
a lotta trouble - their ftp thingy doesn't seem to work too well.

The 16F877 looks fantastic. Any tips where to take a look at some
example code? Anything, really.

One project that's sort of on the horizon is to interface a graphic
lcd (T0693) via a serial connection, which could be IR/RF or cable, to
a PC. The idea is to load images from the PC's HD and show them
remotely on the LCD. I've got Steve Lawther's code for interfacing a
graphic lcd to a 16F84 but this chip would leave pins to spare for
keypad, serial channel etc. Ha, but I'm  a *long way* from being able
to do it right now.

Regards - Ian
