USB connected LCD?
Just saw this one hackaday: Cheap USB LCD - Hack a Day

Would this make any sense to be used with the guino?

I thought exactly the same thing when I saw it on Engadget, but the $90 shipping to the UK put me off

I'm afraid it would be a lot of work to make it work. Plus the added expense ($50 isn't exactly cheap).

Nice packaging though.
