I switched from the 16F877a to the 16F690 and couldn't even get RCIF to set. After much scrambling about and finally Googling, I found that I hadn't cleared ANS11 to disable the analogue circuitry. Hope this tip saves you some time.

C'mon, you could be the first guy who likes to write about Hyperterminals and baud rates, to make a BEAUTIFUL blog! Start out with a great photo cropped to be your header, then we can go from there. :-) By the way, I left a note to your comment on my blog. See you next week. Hi,
