If there's a PIC you would really like to use have a frank discussion with your distributor about the price target. They may have more wiggle room at 10K pieces and can sometimes get special pricing in order to get a design win. Also, don't discuss just the PIC with them. Give them a shot a quoting the whole bill of materials. They may be able to give you a really good deal on other parts in order to get the processor into your design.
