I'm currently working on migrating a PIC16 design over to a dsPIC (we don't
use the DSP functionality, dsPIC was chosen just because it is a nice
architecture and PIC24 didn't exist yet). However, I can see us still using
the 14-bit chips in future projects due to their lower cost and power
consumption. A Free C compiler for the PIC16's would certainly be nice to
have.
The PIC18 series seems a bit pointless now that there is PIC24, especially
for people developing on GNU.
cheers,
John
