Would probably work great but if we dont all agree on a common platform I
guess we will end up duplicating lots of software efforts. I really wanted
to use a small oled display in my minima (they are beautiful) but decided
to stick with the 2x16 because that is what everyone is using for now.

If you look at the code, it would not be hard to change it to use something
else though. Maybe we could move the display code to a separate file so
that the main sketch does not need to know what type of screen is used.
That would make adapting to a new screen even easier!
