You can use it, which I am planning to do for the wearable spec that I'm
designing.  As for extra hardware, I believe that all you would need is a
card that can run LCD screens and the driver for the 320C (see below).
Anyone else know if the 320C driver would try and do something funky like
run off of VGA or serial?

However, the display, backlight, and lens assembly together cost $125.
Still pretty cheap, but they also only sell in quantity, 10 or more.  There
is a group purchase pending which you could probably join.  This purchase
is waiting on a driver first, and Steve Mann is currently working on a
Linux driver (I assume Linux, is this in error?) for the 320C.
