Hello everyone...
  sorry for the old question. But need to know
what books to buy for a beginning Pic programer??
I think one was "Easy Pic'n for beginners" or
something like that.
  Also has any had any experience with Optrex Dot Matrix
type LCD modules?? And does anyone know how I can get
hold of the databook for them??
  I tried digikey, but they are out of stock.

                Thanks in advance,
                        simon
