just got back from todays uni lectures, yay how fun they were, not.

Considering that the inverters were free samples I got, I'd rather not sell them seperately, so is there any way you can get hold of a 4x40 LCD and invert it for me, then hook it up to a parallel port connector and swap me for the whole bunch of items listed above? The reason being I really can't afford to fork out money for another LCD so I'd rather swap mine. I'm sure you'd have fun experimenting with an EL backlight.

The other option would be for me to send you all my stuff, then get you to hook it all up and get it working for me, then you can keep the unused inverters for your troubles and send me the working LCD. Sounds pretty fair to me, considering it would probably not take you very long to hook it up with your experience with 4x40 LCD's. I would, ofcourse, pay for all postage required to get the stuff there and back if necessary.

Hope we can work something out as this is my first attempt at an mp3car system and so far it's been pretty daunting.

Hope to hear from you soon.
