About dsPIC30 and hobbyists/newbies...

Now, how many hobbyists/newbies 
are
realy looking for that DSP "thing" ?

If it's just the added 
"power" (speed, 
peripherials and so on), it could be
better to wait 
for the "standard" 16-bits
PIC24 (it was "24", right ?)

Yes, you can 
use the dsPIC30 without
looking at the DSP engine, but it's still
extra 
pages in the datasheet and extra
instructions and so on.

And by the 
time that PIC24 hit the
streets, the tools might have evolved
a bit 
more then today (mainly 3-part
programmers).
