Electronics 1x20 or whatever length LCD's

ok so after aquiring a small PC from a mate, with the purpose of having away with the Laptop drive in it. However now I have a machine that has a little hole in the front, that is ripe to be modded to an MP3 player. But I'd really like to put in a single chracter height LCD display.

Teeeeenie problem is I cant find any

any ideas peeps?

 

this is the site of the company my friend bought some lcds and they have 1x20 your looking for. if you want smaller they even have a 1x16. i don't know whether they are only based in america and ROC cause my friend definately bought through them and we're in SA.

have a look anyway and maybe you'll find someone in your area that stocks them.

LCD your looking for: PDF Datasheet

good luck, i would love to see pics of your mp3 player when it's done

<EDIT>
oh, i failed to notice the sales network link. you'll probally find someone close to you through there.

Cheers, This mod is defintily going ahead.

one of those 20 x 1 displays would look l33t

 

MPJA has a few.

 

Its getting closer, I am in correspondence with a number of companies, MPJA are the winners so far because they offer Serial driver boards rather than parrallel.
