The $4.30 LCD BoosterPack - Nokia 7110 LCD

SugarAddict designed this BoosterPack based on a Nokia 7110 LCD screen with 96 x 64 pixels and backlight. 

It was sold at the 43oh Store for USD4.30, the same price as the LaunchPad. Unfortunately, the batch is entirely sold.

It uses software SPI and only requires 6 pins P2_0 through P2_5, keeping pins P1_6 and P1_7 available for hardware SPI or hardware I²C.

Below, examples of the screen used as a thermometer, based on the Nokia 7110 LCD.
The same screen running on a LaunchPad Stellaris.

The library developed on Energia supports both the LaunchPad and StellarPad.
