Use it a lot, especially when I need to write 'sloppy' code with a lot of debugging type info. I use the extra pins for LEDs, LCDs, switches, etc.
Later on, clean up the code, get it down to size and put it on a 40 pin version of the '8723 (i.e. 18F452/4620/4685, whatever). Have a few of a second version that'll allow the '8723 to plug into a 28-pin socket. Same principle applies.
Very few code changes required as long as I don't use an '8723 specific module or function.
