Does anyone have experience with the LCD Smartie software? (preferably using a Crystal Fonts lcd)

I am looking at the Crystal Fonts CFAG320240CX-TFH-T-TS·320X 240·touchscreen

    I just read that LCD Smartie curently supports:
    • All serial/usb Crystalfontz displays.
    • All serial/usb Matrix Orbital displays.
    • All parallel connected LCD's with a HD44780 compatible controller and with 8bit wiring (using this wiring).
    • Serial/usb displays with an HD44780 controller, such as Pertelian displays.
    • Most serial/usb/BT/IR PalmOS devices (when used with PalmOrb) [noparse][[/noparse]USB support is experimental]

    But they also say: Currently supported sizes are:
    • 1x10, 1x16, 1x20, 1x24, 1x40,
    • 2x16, 2x16, 2x20, 2x24, 2x40,
    • 4x16, 4x20, 4x40

    Contradicting, because both Crystalfontz and Max Orbital make sizes larger than 4 X 40, also no touch screen support.Too bad cry.gif

    I use SMARTIE with my PALM running PalmOrb in 2x20 mode. Seems to work as advertized in my case.

    There's nothing like a new idea and a warm soldering iron.
