Thanks for the data sheet, apologies certainly accepted but not really 
needed.  I'm used to press releases preceding the data sheets (Microchip in 
particular seems to take years).  Having the datasheet immediately 
available is nice though.

Definitely, can I take it the SSP cures the race condition in the SPI?  And 
how about the race condition in the timers (that's actually more critical I 
believe)?
