>> Use software PWM to control a few Bi or Tri colour LED's to make a >> colour changing decoration? > > Good one. The 10Fs only have 3 output pins - yes, you can charlieplex, but that only gives you 6 LEDs - only 3 x bi-colour or 2 x tri-colour. Can still make a nice little display with that, though. Software PWM for multiple LEDs would be quite a challenge with only 1 timer and no interrupts. Possible, of course, but certainly challenging.
