    So, you get the LCD, put it somewhere in the case and plug it into a serial port and then configure using (presumably free) software, is it really that simple? If so, count me in! :lol:

    Rob, I found this article which might help with your soldering needs.

    If this doesn't help, there are hundreds of others on Google ;)

    If the cost drops below £15 each I'll probably take 2 instead of 1.

    Hi Visualaid

    Not to be a Party Puber but 15£ price is that also with Duty payment ?
    Since you are going to order from a country outside EU the post office or custom clerk will put a tax on the displays. :grr:

    And also would i be able to ordre one too i'm situated in Denmark.

    I might also join the bandwagon. When you get a rough idea how many want one.

    Let us all know of the price. and how much would it cost for you to post one out to each of us?

    I can pay by cheque or even bank transfer.

    they aint big things so when in this county it will cost less then £4-3 for each screen posted or even less ebcause i cant weigh them yet.

    Also i checked customs and excise and it has a thing that tells the tax on different stuff and Liquid crystal displays from the U.S says that 0% tax will be charged i'll give you link in my next post to show you.

    currently we have 23 screens that people want that means that the next boundary is 50 which we wont reach :) so we' should get them at good prices now. Also people buying 2 or 3 will pay the same fee twice k ?.

    An estimated price so far including $60 for shipping is £13
