Oh, yes, in Microchip's defense, they do give Third Party developers heads
up information and samples.
There's no complaint from me in that department.

I guess my point is that I don't see any viable business model in a third
party programmer.

By the way, how did your portable programmer come out. I think you were
using MMC for storage?
It's interesting that Microchip's PM3 programmer uses MMC or SD for
storage -- it's a nice-looking unit.

I like your web site Bob -- thanks for sharing!
