     A while ago, I posted a question about interfacing to "raw" LC displays. 
To make a long story short, I realized it was too much of a hassle (if it was
possible).   So, I broke down and ended up buying a "ready made" LCD.  
 
 
     The reason I'm posting now is because I got quite a bargain.   A company
called Timeline in Los Angeles is offering GREAT LC displays for $5 each. 
Minimum 5.   They're dot matrix, 16 characters by 1 line (5x7 or 5x10 fonts!
Includes characters with distenders (sp?)).  I bought five, and although I've
only used one, I'm really happy with the thing.  The send a huge packet of
data sheets and app notes along with your purchase.  Although they're used,
they are in good-excellent shape (a few small scratches on the lenses).  The
driver chips are great... basically just send some configuration info, and
start sending your data. 
 
      Anybody interested should contact Timeline at:

                        Timeline
                        1490 West Artesia
                        Gardena, CA, 90247

                        1-800-223-9977
                    or  1-213-217-8912


    I don't see why I should say this, but everybody seems to so here goes: I
am not affiliated in any way with this company!
