All, I didn't. But then I didn't really figure I would. It was a spur of the moment thing that I entered at all. So, I'm not too disappointed. However, it would have been nice to have made it through. Oh well, such is life.

I'm somewhat happy to see another 32bit core with multi-vendor potential enter the fray, though as you say, it seems a little late. On the other hand, the PIC32 MIPS core products are competing against the "microcontroller" ARM products (ie those using the Cortex M3 core), and those aren't as well established.
