Alright I have the screen in my possession and I have a money back guarantee that it will work, so now that I have the LCD screen, I need a controller to make it work, any ideas of where I could buy one within the reaches of Barrie, and Toronto, or online somewhere? |

I assume your LCD uses HD44780 protocol. if so almost anyol microcontroller chip should be able. I personally prefer the ATmega168, its easy to program. if you`re clueless about with microcontrollers like i was, I'd suggest getting a kit with a programmer module and instructions possible from robotshop.ca or nerdkits.com |
