beginner help for image based arduino pov

hey guys im new here

i want to do an image-based POV using this http://www.sparkfun.com/products/10312 , and im looking the cheapest arduino that i can use to accomplish this… im hoping to be able to display a 30x30 24 bit image, which should take up 2.63671875 kilobytes … i guess that means im going to be looking at something based on an ATmega1280 or ATmega2560 since they have 4 kilobytes of eeprom…

has anyone ever done anything like that before? in particular im trying to figure out how to get the image loaded onto the atmega , and also how to cycle the LED’s between individual lines in the image for the actual POV effect
