The one I bought was from http://www.futurlec.com. It was listed on
their page as a HD61202, but it turned out to be a T6963C instead
(which, afterwards, should've been obvious, as their specification
sheet states there is a "Font Select" pin, and has a HD61202 doesn't
have fonts). Their specification sheet is at:
http://www.futurlec.com/LED/LCD128X64.shtml and includes a picture. It
sells for $25 or so, there. Note that Futurlec is known for being very
slow at processing orders (it can take up to three weeks).

I agree that the standard HD44780 LCDs don't make for good graphics:
you can only have 8 user defined characters and there will always be
white lines in between each 5*8 group.

To see more images, feel free to type "T6963C" in google pictures.
