Typical, just as I bought a bunch of 18F2550 for testing! These new=20 products look very good. Does anybody know what the status of Microchip's USB libraries and XC8=20 is? Do they have to be compiled in "C18" or a compatibility mode? Or=20 do they just work? It might be time for me to finally stop using serial=20 for some things.
