IEE Daystar Nova (tm) series LCD displays seem to fit your requirements.
They have a high contrast ratio, built-in drivers, and backlit versions 
are available.  (They are a bit tricky to instruct, however.  The four
line display is actually two 2-line displays, and must be treated as
such when writing to it.)

My 4x40 character screen cost ~$220.  They can be ordered directly
from the manufacturer:
