Jose',

I am presently using the 'A2 revision.
1) Yes,"application programming from internal memory" Does Not Work.
2) The bootloader has been reliable in my experience, i am using the DALLAS "Loader420" program (limited to 19.2).
3) PLCC Samples came quickly (DIP samples have yet to arrive).
4) Our production requirement is shipping in waterfall and slowly 8 weeks from order.

regards,
p
