Hi Alex,

sorry for late answer. 

At www.lcd-module.de you will find a new series of alphanumeric LCD 
displays called "DOG-Series".

On the 2x16 and the 3x16 you can combine 2 lines to 1 line with double 
height characters. Of course there will remain a gap between the upper 
and the lower half. The controller is ST7036, it can do this by 
hardware.
