Agreement on the MSP430. I've sat in their sales seminars and watched how
simple it is for a C programmer with MSP430's. Only their high-end parts
include the LCD driver though - otherwise it wouldn't be much different than
doing so with a PIC.

It is a high-value item for them, and for developers too evidently. I tried
to swap off both a low end and a mid-range dev kit for one of the kits for
the high end chips and found no takers.....it seems the parts with
integrated LCD driver are by far most popular.

m'chip should have taken notice of this by now.....would be nice to see an
LCD driver on a PIC...!
