Bill,

I think what you got was information for a new part.
Freescale seem to be spinning a lot of their parts
targeting them to specific markets.

The 8pin s08 and RS08 parts are interesting. The
RS08 parts are remarkably code efficient. I just
finished a fixed point transcendental library for it
and the PIC's we support.

My excuse for not getting an editor together.
