need an LCD display

[MrDEB]

getting really lost as to which one to use for a PIC project.
some have a controller some don't say.
I get impression one with Hitachi HD44780 is pretty much standard?
found a moduel over at goldmine
Hantronix HDM64GS24Y 240 x 64 Graphics LCD Display Module-The Electronic Goldmine
that is only $8.95
everywhere else a 240x64 display is upwards of $100
any input would be helpful
planning on displaying muzzle velocity and muzzle energy in an air cannon building a chronograph using an 18F452 PIC, 2 ir LEDs and 2 ir sensors
maybe throw in a wind speed measurement?
working on code as well as finding parts.
any input or suggestions would be helpful.

That's a very nice display for $8.95. Shame it needs an external 100v 400Hz EL backlight supply but you can get little modular EL suplies cheap now anyway.

Here's a **broken link removed**. Probably overkill, but not too expensive.
