Hi !
Umm.. I am new to engineering and... I am not started yet in the BASIC Stamp. But I have a question .
I am creating an instant messenger, text messenger, and voice messenger device using a Propeller Chip .
Uh... )c· 8)··· Is it possible? I want to buy an· LCD that is under $100, or at least $150. I want it to be 8 x 20 letter text or 8x16 letter text.·Do any of you know where that kind of display are? Or, I am thinking of getting a high-resolution LCD display and... How do I cram a software in the Propeller and EEPROM? how do I create pixels on the display because I want to use the LCD pixel creater?

You can use any TV with a video input for development and buy the little LCD video display later.
There is more than enough information in the Propeller Manual on how to use the Propeller Tool (an Integrated Development Environment - Editor, Compiler, Downloader). You can download the Manual for free from the Parallax Propeller page.
How 'new' to enginering are you? And to programming? You mentioned '...creating .... using a Propeller Chip'; do you have that presently? Is that via the Demo board, PropSTICK, or starting from scratch with a Propeller IC? This may be a huge project depending on past experience. And there may be some limitations for your goals. Voice may present a storage problem.
Have you downloaded and read the Propeller manual? If not, I suggest it is a perfect time to do so. If you have a Demo or PropSTICK, run the example demos that come with the free IDE.
Best wishes on your project.
