Using the Nokia 5110 LCD with the fewest system resources

I started with the Nokia 5110 LCDs and found better ones recently. The HX1230 is a good replacement. It's higher resolution (96x68 versus 84x48) and uses less power (470uA versus 173uA). The cost and size are similar. Another good replacement are the 7920/UC1701 128x64 LCDs. They're also lower power (275uA).
