Hello folks

I found this lcd on the www : http://www.matrixorbital.ca/manuals/GLK_series/GLK240128/GLK240128-25-Q.pdf

and was wondering if it could be used with the BS2 - BS2sx

also i found this one: the SGX-120L from seetron: http://www.seetron.com/sgx120_1.htm


Both are expansive, i know. But i want to use one of them, and can't decide wich one nono.gif
The last one is BS2 compatible, but i couldn't find anything about the first one.

Any help was helpfull here [noparse]:)[/noparse]

    Tumbler -

    If you opt for the SEETRON unit, you get two things you may not get with the other LCD.

    First, with the SEETRON unit, you get known PBASIC Stamp compatibility, and for my money that is a very worthwhile asset. I can't tell you how much lost time and aggravation comes from trying to fit a square peg in a round hole!

    Second, you get the technical assistance of not only the Parallax Stamp forum here, but the well respected technical assistance of the folks at SEETRON as well. Hopefully you won't need that assistance, but if you do, you know you have it.

    If this were me making the purchase, even if the SEETRON LCD were marginally more expensive, I would opt for it for no other reasons than those mentioned above. The final choice is obviously up to you, but that's my 2 cents worth smile.gif

    Regards,

    Bruce Bates
