Re: digital outs
The digital i/o's are directly connected to the PIC. Anything that happens to them happens simultaniously on the connectors. So, if you modify a digital i/o, it'll change right away on its respective connector. My understanding is that the only ones that don't happen right away are the PWM outputs, but that's because they take some extra processing.

EDIT:
Oh wait. I just noticed that this is in the CMUcam forum. Were you asking about the camera or the robot controller?
