Here's some interesting info for you... I tested out this cool
bootloader that shows as a device in "my computer". yes, cool... but
maybe not so practical (only because it is slow).

It came with a hex file for 18f4550, so I wrote it to my PIC. Then I
plugged in the USB port. Windows sees it in "my computer" as a
removable media device. On it, there are 3 files:

1. CONFIG (this file contains the PIC's eeprom data, you can modify
the PIC eeprom here)
2. FW_10 (basically contains your hex file)
3. BOOT (delete this to run your hex file, the device will disconnect
from your system)

Press a button at any time to load the bootloader and connect the
device to your system again.

It came with a sample program that does work. The document says if you
make a hex file, it may start at address 0x2400

This is not for an SD card, but anyways it shows in "my computer" as a
storage device :)
