Hi,
  Just in case anyone's interested, I've been porting the Easyprog firmware
over to the Wisp628 programmer. This means that the Wisp is now theoretically
capable of programming the PIC10F series microcontrollers. I'd like to do
some further testing before releasing it (there's bound to be a stupid bug
*somewhere* in the code), but the initial signs are promising. More
specifically, I've just programmed a PIC16F628 using my spare Wisp628 and the
Easyprog firmware.
  The PIC16F648A chip works fine in place of the Wisp628's PIC16F628, right
down to to the chargepump. The off-load chargepump output did seem a little
high (15V!), but it settled down to a more reasonable 13.6V (or thereabouts)
once the PIC was connected. A little worrying but, again, probably down to me
only giving it a 10-megohm load (the scope probe).
  The next job is to add some of the Version 8, 9 and 10 protocol commands,
then update the Easyprog driver to match. If I get chance, I might hack
together a GUI for the Easyprog as well. I've already got most of the
framework (in the form of my PIC bootloader) done - adding PIC programming
should be a piece of cake.
  Also, just for grins, I might have a look at using my Wisp to program
I2C serial EEPROMs (24LC series). The protocol is completely different, but
the physical layer is still roughly the same - 0V/5V logic, bidirectional
data line, unidirectional clock line. All adds to the fun :)

Later.
