Let us know when you get a parts list and some directions put together. Looking good. I would be interested in doing this because I got an extra 4 row LCD laying around.

This is a prototype version and the parts used are quite expensive... theres also a fair amount of coding involved...



i am planning on designing a cheaper version using a more compact microcontrollor that doesnt have an overkill of features...



and then i plan to sell a few of them posibily
