I'm just taking baby steps here, trying to duplicate the work of others. I compiled a C program from binerry.de that talks to the 5110 from the GPIO's on the Pi.

These Nokia graphical screens are cheap, about $10 at adafruit and eBay, and they're used enough that there's starter sets of C and python out there.

Eventual goal is to have a display powered by python. Idea is to output current song from mpd, along with other interface info, for a wifi radio.
