I just recall (I think correctly) that from a discussion ages ago OTP are supplied full of 00. No idea whether that's an inherent part of the process of making an OTP (as I mentioned before, 68HC OTPs are, or at least used to be, 00 too) or whether MChip chose by design to have the C versions full of 00 (NOP) that can be written over -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
