It's sort of the cart before the horse thing.
I won't be able to make the actual play-back/LED board until a point where the housing will be made and I'm not sure when that will happen. I'm trying to get something that will work for now so I can figure out sizing a bit.
I can breadboard everything with a regular DIP ICs for the development stage and by then maybe the pcb design will come together. Those can be sacrifice chips for experimenting.
I have a feeling any kind of connector won't fit on the final design. I looked at the links and I'm not even sure those adapters can work with my programmer. I really don't want to invest in a new programmer. More to figure out later.
What PIC should I be looking for datasheets on? I checked physical sizes of the one that you first suggested that won't have enough ports and it looks like it is small enough so hopefully the "next size bigger" also fits.
Thanks.
Bart
