but not USB. DIPs are pretty thin on the ground in this segment, and even less with USB.
I've noticed that as well from Google posters. I don't know about your newsreader, but using Forte Agent if I press the "O" key it will line wrap the display so it fits in the window.

I didn't know that any USB stacks were done in hardware. I've never heard of that. Even the separate USB interface chips use a software stack and have an embedded CPU. The FTDI CPU is quite fast.

ATMega:
Loose wording on my part.
The library in question implements all parts of a USB device, including the on the wire signalling, in software by manipulating GPIO lines. This means you can use it on a AVR which does not have any USB hardware support at all.
I was looking for a device which has a hardware USB module built in and only requires the traditional USB device software infrastructure to support it.

Then there are hybrid solutions, somewhere in the middle. IIRC Ubicom had a shifter/bit-stuff block, and the next layer was all software. XMOS also have a similar 'minimal hardware' approach. You can start with XMOS, from $49
