Hi, Gene, this unit is really old, but good. I used it first time on SuSE 5.1 on a really ancient FreePascal version. But I must say, it simply worked. =D
The only problem is that it is running without buffers and all this fancy stuff which FOSSIL had, and at that time I was a novice on Linux. But if you are interested in, I can search for my wrapper I wrote at that time, It made life a little bit easier to me. Yes, Microchip is a good choice. I love this PICs. And if you wish, buy MikroPascal (http://www.mikroe.com), this is a fully featured PASCAL COMPILER (!!!) which creates code for PICs! -- Really excellent. have a look on my web site, you can see there a prototype of a handheld data recorder I built. It consumes - including the SD-CARD - 2-3mA only, so you can imagine how long it runs with one battery. (http://www.hantsch.co.at then choose -> Entwicklungen on the left. But everything is in German language...) mfg Ing.
