just a comment..
Since these days 99% of all the 'fun' peripherals ARE 3 volts...choose a PIC that says xxxLFyyyy. It's designed to be run at 3 volts which makes life a LOT easier. The other option is to read the datasheet electrical specs, find the 'chart' and see if the PIC will run at 3 volts. Some like the 18F46K22 ( my goto PIC) will run all day at 3 volts.

Have to agree wholeheartedly.
Especially since there are chips for the same money (or less) then their older brethren, which have multiple UART's, multiple I2C's, more RAM, more ROM, etc. etc.. Once you get hooked on some of the new chips, you will find the older ones really restrictive.

I agree too, I made a poor choice by using this PIC but the dev board it was on was pretty interesting so I went for it. I'm totally aware of the large choice Microchip has to offer and rest assure that I will take time to choose more wisely when I'll start designing my own boards. thanks again for all the advices!
