Hello! I see. The offer, (if it can be called that) still stands. For what I am working on, I suspect I might need similar technological advanced means of working with different examples of interfaces. And before anyone asks, it is a method of sending data to, and then from, a Palm running this application http://palmorb.sf.net it emulates an incredibly expensive serial enabled LCD display. It happens that I'm using a BASIC Stamp this time for my studies. I've also used it with its intended purpose of displaying data from the applications described on the site.
The other problems are ongoing. I'm still interested in One Wire technology of course Paul, but that's an ongoing project. --- Gregg C Levine hansolofal...@att.net “This signature is not the same one. Move along!
