Hi,

I am using FreeBSD in smallish Net Appliance -type uses.  Has anyone
good suggestions for a RS-232 or USB-based mini terminal which would
have a LCD display with (at least) 2x16 characters or a graphic
display and a couple of keys to navigate (or an alphanumeric
keyboard).

I know about these products:

http://www.crystalfontz.com/products/633/

and similar.  Thei price range is in about USD100 which is OK.

But what I (and probably many others) would need, is an external
(preferably powered by USB) display/keboard combo in a case.

All industrial hand held RS-232 terminals seem to be in USD1000-2000
range which is too much for my use.
