Smooth LED fading via PWM

Hank,
Something to tuck away in your cranium while working with the EEPROM: It has a limited number of write cycles.

I can't remember the number of write cycles, but you will NEVER wear it out just by reprograming it. (EDIT: The 18F4620 is rated minimum 100K and typical 1M write cycles)

But you could wear it out if you repeatedly write a value during the operaitons of your code. So only make the WRITE when the user actually changes the vaule.
