Quote:I'm afraid it would not. The processor can drive the number of graphic elements as given on the present LCD, definitively not a single pixel more. For more, another architecture is required ... -> 43S.

I'm not thinking of a complete board swap, just an add-on board with a few components. Walter has already explained that we will not be able to add a substantially better display without an embedded controller which would demand a larger battery which ... |
