Some reason you're using the software uart instead of hardware? For the
hardware USART, I use the code below:

unsigned char InkeyUSART(void){
// Same as getcUSART, but returns 0 if no key instead of waiting for a
key
unsigned char data;
  if (DataRdyUSART()){
      data=getcUSART();                 // Get the byte
  }else data=0;                         // If nothing there, return 0
  return(data);
}
