Hi,
just thought I'd ask people, where can I get hold of some 'custom' LCD displays?
I'm not talking about desinging the signs/characters/shapes myself, and I'm not talking about intelligent LCD's (like HD44780 and a-like).
I always se HD44780, or graphic LCD's with on-board controllers, but Some of my little projects aren't worth using them. To give you an idea of the sort of thing I want, heres a link to a pic:

Its from a MSP dev board, I would buy the board, but I only really want the LCD, with little counters/symbols. Considering how many products these days have custom LCD's there must be some surplus out there.........and many are used in microcontroller/FPGA dev boards.
I realise that the symbols on the custom LCD would depend entirely on the app (obviously, the reason for using custom displays as opposed to generic LCD's) but a few little special symbols would be handy.
Awaiting any advice.
