Hello :-)

I bought 2 units of a 84x48 Nokia 5110 display* - it's very cheap and
low power, also should be very easy to solder to actual imx233 board.

I bought 1 unit for me and other for Bob in case he will need it.

My play now is to use the Opendous imx233 board, and wire to it the
battery, a few buttons and this LCD -- then I should be able to have a
working hardware for Lyre. Later I will design a parametric enclosure
for 3D print with ABS plastic, on my printer. I will offer one
enclosure for Bob.

I need to also start working on firmware - at the same time I think
Bob will start working to, to port Rockbox :-)

Bob is looking for a Lyre using hard disk, and should be fine if he
find a easy way to wire it to imx233 board. The parametric 3D design
of the enclosure can quick be expanded/change for the hard disk.
