I was wondering how would this attach to the calculator? is it going to
use some external controller with it own memory that the calculator will
transfer graphics data to? or will it be attached directly to the
calculator? if it is going to be directly attached to the calculator how
are you going to get around the problem that the calcs don't have enough
memory to use as a frame buffer?
