[QUOTE="galgo, post: 596514, member: 97464"] Greetings :) I'm looking for a small & simple (=cheap...;)) LCD/VFD display for my HTPC in order to avoid turning the TV ON. Mainly to control music,check eMail and uTorrent status ... I saw many kits here and in eBay - but I'm not sure which has good compatibility to MP mini-display plug In or other software. I already have the MS MCE remote control kit (with receiver and IR blasters) so all I need is a small display kit. Preferably something compact since I don't have an available 5.25" bay (HTPC in [I]Enermax LAGUNA[/I] case)... I might build an "external" enclosure if I'll have to.... Any specific recommendations? :thx: How about this kit from SURE electronics: [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/1602-LCD-Display-Board-with-USB-Edition-I-LCD-Smartie_W0QQitemZ230451177963QQcmdZViewItemQQptZLH_DefaultDomain_0?hash=item35a7f5e9eb"]1602 LCD Display Board with USB (Edition I) LCD Smartie[/URL] or this from ABACOM: [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/USB-LCD-Textdisplay-4x20-Zeichen-HD44780-I2C-blau_W0QQitemZ360218937089QQcmdZViewItemQQptZBauteile?hash=item53deb8c701"]USB-LCD-Textdisplay 4x20 Zeichen, HD44780, I2C, blau[/URL] Other recommended sources? (I'd prefer NOT to go for a commercial items i.e. iMon etc. since I enjoy building myself and they are just too expensive...) [/QUOTE]
