14Just a very quick look at this Pocket Computer from Sharp before I send it off to its new home.
Unfortunately the LCD seems to have issues - I did try powering it (2 x CR2025 cells) but couldn't discern anything on the screen ... it looks like the polariser is inverted but then you'd expect to see white text on a black background, wouldn't you?
It is actually possible to buy newly manufactured LCDs here:
