You'll be surprised at how fast the pincount gets used up.  Especially when
interfacing with more traditional A/D busses (not pic).  Anyway, there are
smaller packages (but for some reason plcc's are a little more expensive).
Actually I think the 100pin tqfp would be ideal for the logic analyzer as
you wouldn't need to multiplex inputs.  Anyway, 100 pins sounds like a lot,
but in actuality you only have 72 or so free for your project.   My current
project actually needs to move up to a larger package, I've run out of pins!
