Well I have no experience with microcontrollers of any nature. And the
circuit I found that started me on this path used a PIC, then I found the
atmell app notes. Figure if someone already has done the hard work I can
put the package together.

I bet ya the basic stamp would work fine. I just don't have one. :)
