Color screens

Nokia screens 5110

It's a 84x48 pixels display, cheap and easy to use. Ready to run for the text with libs here under, and if you want to draw know this : the screen is a 84 (cols) x (6 bytes = 48 rows) in readonly mode. You must store in memory the representation of what you draw (84*6=504 bytes), switch the status of the pixel and push back the whole 8pixel(byte) part of line.

Could we use it to do some nice FFT ? http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1286718155

Cheap eBay LCD screens

Bought one the other day, let's give a try. Lots of pins and 3.3v but worth the tryout.
