Thanks Walter, I will look into the APP note. But I will only have 1 chip per card. I did put an I2C port on board

As for sending chips back and forth, they are TQFP's. So that option is out. Worse case is I buy a pickit2 and send him to use while I get things going as I want them. Then He can send it back and I will be part of the PK2 club.

But A bootloader would be too cool, just email program and presto magic.
