My choice was the PIC-X1   I installed dual headers on the Ziff pins so I
could have total control of all th pins features and could program any pic
with it.  It also has LEDs, a buzzer, RS232, RS485, EEPROM, RTC ,4x4 matrix
keypad, and a LCD all of which can either be used or left alone with the use
of jumbers.   OH it can also support 4 to 20 meg clock speeds via the
multiplier.  Great board.  I ened up mounting mine on a cabinet along with my
EPIC programmer ( which plugs right in by the way)  and included a 3200 point
breadboard circuit... just in case I got overly mischeivious.  The schematic
anf programs are available from Melabs
