I have just finished the first complete port of all the “Graphics, Touch, Sound and USB” book projects to the PIC24EP Mikromedia board series!
There were several lessons learned in the process, interested users will find detailed notes (and a link to a shared Mercurial repository) in the dedicated PIC24EP page of the book web site.
Over all it turned out to be a relatively painless experience, with the added reward of seeing a PIC24 performing at up to 4x the speed of previous generations…
