       --------------                                       |
                                                            |
       After coding for some pretty limited platforms       |
       before, like the Texas Instruments TI-83 calculator, |
       I needed a new challenge. So I decided to write a    |
       demo for Java phones.                                |
       To create a greater challenge, I also decided to     |
       target the very Lowest Common Denominator (hence the |
       name ProjectLCD). In J2ME world, that means writing  |
       for MIPD1.0 - which gives you a screen 96x54 pixels  |
       or larger, no sound, no direct framebuffer access    |
       Also, since I wanted it to scale to the different    |
       display sizes, no bitmapped graphics could be used,  |
       everything must be done using geometric primitives.  |
                                                            |
       The result is (atleast to my knowledge) the first    |
       scene demo targeting pure MIDP1.0 J2ME devices.      |
       It should run on any display-size (it scales to the  |
       largest 16x9 res possible). To get the best effect   |
       you need atleast some grayscales, although it will   |
       run on monochrome devices aswell, it just won't look |
       good.                                                |
                                                            |
       So far I've tried it on a number of devices and it   |
       has run on all, though some (for example Siemens S55 |
       and SonyEricsson T630) report that they support      |
       double buffer when they infact don't. If you get     |
       flickering, press '*' to switch between hardware and |
       software double buffering.                           |

       want. However, if you put this on a CD availible to  |
       the public in any way, you must send me a copy.      |
