One big gotcha with the 16LF's: the brown-out reset feature is pretty muc=
h
useless, since it still trips at the 4.something volt level appropriate f=
or
the corresponding 16F part.  (18LF's are much better in this regard, as t=
he
trip point is adjustable.)

As for 16LF628's being cheaper than 16F628's at Digi-Key, I'm not seeing
that.  I think you are either comparing parts with different temparature
ranges/speed grades, or comparing the large quantity price for a
non-stocked part with the individual price for a stocked part.  I see a
price of $3.05 for one 16F628A-I/P, or $3.23 for one 16LF628A-I/P.
