OWFS supports LCD but it is a PIC based > project if I am not wrong :-/ Right. OWFS support's Louis' board. It is (was?) the only commercial product, fully documented, simple nicely designed API, commercially available (did I say that already?) LCD.
> > Is it impossbile to controll LCD build like in the ds2408 datasheet? Will No it's not impossible, but the problem is 1. I have no board to test. 2. I don't know if the design works, or if anyone actually uses it. 3. It will have to be written at a rather low level, since > you add DS2408 LCD support in the future? I have few, spare DS2408 and > paying extra money + shipping from NZ to Poland is not a good deal :/ Well, if you want to make the board because you want to make the board, go ahead. Louis' board (exclusive of LCD) is < 16 euros, with free shipping to Poland. And it works. And it is already supported. What is your time and materials worth?
