That reminds me -- Microchip had announced a line of 40MHz 8-pin flash
micros early last year:
PIC18F010
PIC18F012
PIC18F020
PIC18F022
The said they'd be about a buck-and-a-half apiece, and would be
sampling in June with quantity production in August. I downloaded
the reference manuals and eagerly anticipated getting my hands on
some. Toward the end of the year, I hadn't heard anything, and
emailing Microchip (the "read by a human" address) yielded nothing.
Now references to these parts seem to have vanished from the website.
I figure they were never brought to market, but I still wonder why.
Also: are there any flash-based chips with internal oscillators?
