I agree with the AVR option. I've started using them for the same reason(s). Free C compiler, lots of application notes, software examples (assembly and C) and development hardware is cheep!

Thats the problem I had with 16 series pics when I started working with pics: no free C compilers. So I started using 18F series pics and used the RC code as a guide to make mine work. After a while I finally got a 18f458 to run a servo!
