That's fair enough and I can appreciate that

My reasoning was one step past the classroom - the real-world
applications your students are likely to want to use PICs for

Motor control, keypads, clocks - 16F (or 18F)
Interconnectivity, SMS, graphic LCDs - 18F probably more suitable

16 and 18 have more things in common than are actually 'different'.
For example many of the differences are enhancements, like more
choices for oscillator configuration. Would there be a way that you
could cover the similarities and have a little time for the 18F's
enhancements or would that just overwhelm your students ?
