Hey!  I thought this was a PIC list not an AVR list...  ;^)

Quite coincidently I just learned about the AVR Butterfly
Wednesday evening at a local computer club monthly meeting.
Since I am PIC centered, I (mostly) ignore things ATMEL.

I do intend to learn more about the Butterfly, but I cannot
answer your question since I have just found out about it.

I am highly impressed with the unit cost.  I am anxious to
learn what the Butterfly contains (circuitry, features), but
it grinds my sensibilities since I am PIC centered.  It is
one of those "religious" choices like:

   1) emacs vs vi (vim)

   2) MicroSoft vs Unix

   3) MicroChip vs ATMEL

So, you can see why I would be conflicted.  Isn't this silly?

Regards,

web...
