Did you ask in the PIC forum of this site ?
What you're trying to do is a really simple task. What PIC are you planning to use ? Some of them have built in USART, so the routines needed to send/receive data are tiny (less than 10 lines of assembler code).

I did ask in another forum area, but got no reply. I didn't chose the PIC forum as I wasn't sure if using a PIC was worth it if someone knew of a board already made up or a more simple approach.
I've no plans on which chips to use at all - it's at the "can it be done" stage really and as I've not touched electronics for 6 years, I'm somewhat clueless!
You say it's easy - where should I be starting. PIC or not.
