I called a "local" (and since I live in a rural community, I use the word
"local" very loosely) electronics supply house, and asked them about the
driver chip. He got back to me, today.
Good news and bad news -- the chips are available, but only on a roll,
and in large quantity. I can't buy one or two chips. However, since I
think wear-hard list members have spoken for somewhere around 120
displays total, another group purchase may be in order. I asked him
about this possibility, and we'll see how Motorola responds to selling
"only" 100-150 of the chips. I've also asked him about getting samples
of the chip -- it never hurts to ask. He said it'll probably be next
Tuesday or Wednesday before we hear back from them.
BTW: Only 1 person has gotten back to me about the group purchase, and
approved the final distribution numbers. Please send me an email, if you
were involved in the original group. I'll also need your addresses, so I
can get a shipping estimate for each of you.
