I want to get a double drive bay VFD or LCD, but also like the 7-key keypad. Are you guys gonna come out with a 4x20 VFD or LCD with one of these keypads any time soon?

that is realy sweet...and enough room left there for some leds....
im actually working on something similer for rev2 of the orbital control center...i picked up this sony ps2 remote to donate parts to the project...ive looked it over, and it will be easy to wire up what i want, but i havent tried it yet...you can easily guess which parts of the keypad im going to use....can you tell me if the membrane switches will be enough to activate for keypad functions?

Dumb question incoming....
I'm wanting to run one of the larger Graphical Serial Lcds (say a GLK24064-25) for example, and am curious if this new mount w/keypad will work with it?
