TO use as an instruction manual LCD on my bartop cab?

Anyone know how to interface these?  any web sites that may be able to help me out?

Meldinov:

what you want is a very dificult thing, each phone has a diferent interface.
what i would look are the lcd panel via usb or serilas that computer moders and overclockers use for monitoring temperatures, voltages, winamp info or just a cool few words

RayB:

Don't they sell cheap LCD screens intended for interfacing with a PC?

By the way, why do LCD screens have a greyish background color? I remember when I was a teen, I took apart a calculator and I discovered that the grey background was just a piece of paper, and that the LCD still worked without it. Now, why aren't all LCD screens made with a WHITE background instead, for better contrast? Makes NO sense....


SteveJ34:

Or if you wanted something more than textual display and can drive a second monitor, here's an idea for hacking a PS One LCD into a VGA display....

I don't have any immediate cab-related application myself but have considered scaring one up just to have fun with the hack.....
