    I don't know how easy to interface to PIC this is but I'm sure they support it.
    and at 79 bucks . . .

    Default Yes But . . .

    You can control it with a $25 propeller chip which will do everything the PIC will too and probably cost a lot less money when you are finished.

    Propeller is a MCU from parallax, it has an 8 mcu core engine, a bunch of memory and each core can use any of the memory and it is supposed to drive their color lcd.
