The 18F is a good choice to start with. Do you have a programer to flash the chip. What language would you like to use ?

If you do not have a programmer I suggest a Junebug or PICkit2. Both are very good. The Junebug includes a 18F1320 target chip that can be used for learning. It uses the same core as other 18F chips.

If you are good with C start with that. For the 18F family there is a free student version compiler that you can download from microchip's site.

You can find some simple programs written in C18 several places.

Look at C18 Junebug / PICkit2 Tutorial 1
It is written for the Junebug but has the schematic so you can use it without if you breadoard a simple circuit.

ALthough it is written for the 18F1320 it should work with most any 18F PIC if you change the config and processor include. You could even start by using the the simulator in MPLAB.
