RE: [piclist] USB and 18f2550

Try Oshonsoft Pic18_Sim_Ide at www.oshonsoft.com. The simulator,
basic compiler is 29 euro. There is an addon for USB. Under projects
you will find a bootloader for the 18F series. The bootloader uses
the serial port which may be better than using the USB for
bootloading. You can play with Pic18_Sim_Ide with out paying for the
product to get a feeling for it. 29Euro is a great deal.
