Nokia 3310 or 3210 LCD panel. Philips SPI-bus controller, maximum clock rate
is (IIRC) 5MHz. I've had one displaying graphics, now I'm moving onto text.
That's going to be fun - I bet about half of my PIC's program memory is going
to be eaten by the character lookup tables. Has anyone done this sort of
thing before?
I still need to find a PIC with about 1k of RAM...

Later.
