Post by thread:Newfound PP1 Programmer, and Picstart-16B.

All good things must come to an end, and I wish to announce that the Newfound PP1 programmer manufacturing is finished. This was one of the few production quality programmers (Variable VCC) that was produced as a third party programmer for the PIC165X family of Micros. In fact, I only have 3 left in stock. I felt I should let the piclisters know before I saw the last of them go out the door. Prices, features can be seen at: http://www.dontronics.com/newfound.html As you may be aware, all firmware code for the PP1, Warp-3, and Picstart 16-B is available from this site for free. This is to the Phoenix standard See: http://www.dontronics.com/download.html Sales of Warp-3 continue whilst stocks last, however the end is in sight for this item also. This is due to a combination of new Micros being introduced by Microchip that replace the older 5x family, and the health of Jim Robertson of Newfound. Jim has been unable to continue with his work, and new developments are not forthcoming, however he is prepared to support existing sales for a reasonable period. The Warp-3 is now running successfully on MacIntosh computers. I can't imagine that I will have stock of any Newfound product after 2 or 3 months.
