Hello
Just had a quick look at prices and the 8051 devices seem very expensive when compared to a similar PIC or AVR device. Also we dont get very many requests for 8051 so it would probably not be commercially viable.
Just look at these prices.

We have looked into 8051 and were quite close to doing it at one stage. One problem for us is the wide range of chips that are available from different manufacturers. Do you have any particular manufacturer's range of chips in mind?
