Propeller and ST7781R LCD

Just wondering, I picked up a 320x240 lcd touchscreen from Radio Shack, produced by Seeedstudio. It was intended for use with the Arduino boards. I have an arduino board and it works, but I'd like to get it working with my Propeller chip. I got a blank arduino shield type protoboard and have the IO pins to drive the LCD (not the touchscreen though). I've not had any luck searching the forums or the OBEX for anything with the ST7781R controller this display uses. Has anyone successfully interfaced this type of display with a Propeller before? It has an 8 bit interface in addition to 4 control lines plus 4 lines for the resistive touchscreen. I know it would suck up a LOT of I/O pins, but think it would be awesome to interface with the Propeller. I have an Arduino Mega 2650 board, but it only runs at 16 MHz, and I'm figuring I could get better performance out of it if I could run it with an 80 MHz Propeller.

Here's a link to the page for the display I have.

Thanks!
