not sure if anyone has seen it or would want to use it. but i stumbled on what i guess is a dev manual for the VMU. its almost 800 pages, pretty cool. covers hardware, programming pretty much everything.

Thanks for the link poopidoop.
I downloaded it the other day, and looked through a few pages. Amazing!
I'll take my time and read through it, to see how this vmu thing works.

If you ask at the dc junkyard i do think it has been already done, including backlight

But i do guess is too much the effort...

Solder wasnt used.)
