A PC-based in-circuit programmer would be fine, except for one thing: they have lower security. For example, if Microchip's PM3 was fast enough, we could use superglue to make the memory card non-ejectable, and maybe use a different connector for USB. Not foolproof, but it would provide a deterrent to keep the person who is programming the ICs, from copying the code. With a PC-based programmer, we would have to put the binary in a location accessible by the PC used for programming. Do you have a solution in mind, that we haven't considered?
