You can sample PDIP 10F from Microchip. But PDIP kind of defeats
the "smallest micro in the world" thing. You could use it to breadboard,
as samples of SOT23 and DFN are available for PCB installations

I have used the SOT23 10F as a LED flasher, but SOT23 only because
of space restrictions. I would rather have used the 12F629, because of
the lower consumption and better timing features, but have those only in
DIP
