In the subject of this mailing list you mention a Tmote Sky.
I have no experience with micaz. 

http://www.robot-electronics.co.uk/shop/I2C_Serial_Display_LCD032058.htm

There are four pins for this display:

- SDA (I2C serial data) Tmote sky pin 8
- SCK (I2C serial clock) Tmote sky pin 6
- GND Ground
- VCC 5 Volt supply voltage

Check you micaz datasheet (pin schematics) for further information on
connecting the display to your mote. 

You can also connect the display to the UART of your mote. It supports
serial communication. Serial protocol is easier to talk than I2C. But maybe
it is simplified in TinyOS, due to the hardware abstraction.

Your current consumption wil decrease with 280mA.

Greetz,

Oussama

I was also interested in connecting a lcd to my mote, it is a crossbow
micaz, is it possible?  Can you point to me site worthy of your trust
that ships internationally?

Thanks,
Hugo
