        Exactly, which is to me just as annoying as banks on the PIC.

        It's not a matter of it being a "problem", it is an annoyance, and one that
would seriously limit some of my uses (often when I use interrupts coming
out of sleep I need a very short latency to do things right).

        Agreed, I choose the chip because I THOUGHT it had an ADC (since the port
pins were labeled in a way that made me think that), only upon closer
inspection did I find out it has comparators. TTYL
