I can definitely understand that.  These displays went FAR faster than I
expected, and people wanted FAR more of them than I would have thought.=20
Truth be known, I probably ought to buy another 42, and put them on eBay
as a Dutch auction, for the highest bidders!  But that's not how I do
things...profit is one thing, but this isn't about profit for me.

As for the prices, to get them to my house cost me $1.095 per display,
$45.99 total for the 42 displays.  Shipping will probably not be much,
but will undoubtedly depend on the weight of the package, and where you
live.  The seller FedExed it to my house, and charged only $6 for a
=66airly large, but very light box.

eBay is a mochrome one?

Yes, they're the monochrome 320x240 QVGA panels from Kopin.  The model
number identified it as a specific model made for one of Kopin's
customers...the label on the package I got said the customer was Motorola
itself.  Justin (TechnoMage) said it's the exact display he has, and it
works great...the chip has changed, slightly, and I've made the data
sheets available to him, so that his driver board schematics can be
updated.  This is turning into a perfect example of a distributed
project...sourcing, schematics, boards, etc all done across the world, by
true cooperation.

I love it when it works this way!
