The price puts them in about the same market, as b/w LCD displays with features no where near what the colour Micro-LCD offers at his introductory price of $50AUD. (~$38USD) He has also asked me to point out the advantages of having a Micro-USB connected to these boards for development work, and strongly recommends users buying one at the same time. The text can also be found at: http://www.dontronics.com/micro-lcd.html#usb Don... ============================== Micro-USB recommendation: It is strongly recommended that developers also purchase and install a Micro-USB module, as this will assist a lot with your development stage. Even if you just wire the unit up with four jumpers, and not actually install it on the board. Atilla say he uses the PC all the time to help with his development work. The PC offers a quick test environment for the Micro-LCD, so that splash screens and menus can be tested before coding into your embedded application. Docklight RS232 Terminal RS232 Monitor is a very suitable program to test the Micro-LCD from a PC. A new program is being developed to save picture files generated on the PC, so they can be exported to your micro application. Because of this, we have decided not to glue the LCD display to the Micro-LCD board, as the user may wish to install the Micro-USB module, and will need to get to the back of the board to solder it in. There are two tabs on the LCD that line up with two blank areas on the PCB, which will allow you to use either double sided adhesive tape, or glue, to join the two boards together. -- Don McKenzie E-Mail Contact Page: http://www.e-dotcom.com/ecp.php?un=Dontronics USB,RS232 or TTL to VGA Monitor http://www.dontronics.com/micro-vga.html World's smallest USB 2 TTL Conv http://www.dontronics.com/micro-usb.html USB to RS232 Converter that works http://www.dontronics.com/usb_232.html From support2005 at dontronics.com Sat Oct 8 19:53:49 2005 From: support2005 at dontronics.com (Don McKenzie) Date: Sun, 09 Oct 2005 09:53:49 +1000 Subject: [SimmStick_Group] [Micro-VGA] Micro-USB recommendation: In-Reply-To: <009101c5cc62$43c51d20$0100000a@XPHome> References: <43479688.5030209@dontronics.com><019801c5cbef$7262ff80$0100000a@XPHome> <43479A3E.4020204@dontronics.com> <009101c5cc62$43c51d20$0100000a@XPHome> Message-ID: <43485C0D.1090303@dontronics.com> Frank Mc Alinden wrote: > Hi Don > > >>>>He has also asked me to point out the advantages of having a Micro-USB >>>>connected to these boards for development work, and strongly recommends >>>>users buying one at the same time. > > > Could you please amend my order to include one of the Micro-USB Devices..? > Or do i have to place another order ? another if you would please Frank. we don't get to see your CC details these days, as it is a transaction between the customer and the Commonwealth bank. don't add postage of course. we will print out the new order, and add the goods.

Thanks Karl, and Mark Timpany in the US also. I dialed in with my back up Internode account and it works fine, so it is an optus local problem. sent them a message, and will expect a response in a day or two, so I may ring them and hang on for 20 minutes instead.

Recovery of code where compiler tools or processor(s) are obsolete or no longer available. Instead of going through the trouble of re-installing your programming tools, PICDIS is self contained and may probably recover what you are looking for quicker. You can read and merge several HEX format file types (example Intel, Motorola). You can import HEX format file types which may be of odd start locations or long lengths which can cause problems for some chip programmers, file editors or readers. http://www.dontronics.com/picdis.html Don... -- Don McKenzie E-Mail Contact Page: http://www.dontronics.com/e-mail.html Micro,TTL,USB to 1.5" color LCD http://www.dontronics.com/micro-lcd.html USB,RS232 or TTL to VGA Monitor http://www.dontronics.com/micro-vga.html World's smallest USB 2 TTL Conv http://www.dontronics.com/micro-usb.html From atilla at 4dsystems.com.au Fri Oct 21 20:03:32 2005 From: atilla at 4dsystems.com.au (Atilla) Date: Sat, 22 Oct 2005 10:03:32 +1000 Subject: [SimmStick_Group] Response Message-ID: <000201c5d69c$0c4f1a00$0202a8c0@atilla1> We've had tons of emails regarding the micro-LCD, the micro-VGA and the micro-USB.

Thanks Helmut, but I'm getting out of VoIP. Reason: I got a lot of people involved in the technology, but every man and his dog is selling these now, and the number of questions I get, doesn't justify my input. It is also what I refer to as "white goods". What I mean by that is goods that don't have a lot to do with in my niche market. Sort of like Dick Smith selling TV's, phones, cameras, etc., when the company started off selling kits, components. Now you have trouble getting a resistor or cap there. Staff generally don't understand. Think you are a dinosaur. And perhaps we are :-) I sold Nexdisk, one of the first USB Ram drives that appeared. It wasn't long before I was swamped with fraudulent orders with stolen cards/numbers, and soon after that faster/cheaper units came on the market. And so it goes, I'll find something new that interests me and possibly my customers, and away we go again. BTW I'll be in Darwin for the next week visiting my latest grandson for the first time. Flying out now.
