I knew I missed something critical.   I am going to be using some 
PIC24's but just for the USB OTG capability - not because there's going 
to be a big huge program running.   Most of the problem is the K and J 
parts (The PIC18f26K20 is biting me right now, but I'm also planning on 
using

When I use the PICkit2 and CCS, I usually use the CCS ide, and then run 
the PICkit2 software in "auto load and program" mode...
Actually easier since hitting the compile button compiles and loads the 
code all in one step.   The ICD3 interests me quite a bit.  Does anyone 
know if it has a similar programming mode?

-forrest.
