im buying a screen directly from a manufacturer, and i got it customized, here are the specs:

Size/AR | Resolution | CTRLChip | Custom
7" (16:9) 480*234 JD70M12(PAL/NTSC) Variable Resistor board adjust brightness and color

it also runs on 12v input, but im sure with LED mods or something similar we can reduce this.

i could of ask for customized OSD and dual inputs but it would cost extra so i went with the simpler route and got a Variable Resistor board. Also the controller module only accepts Analog Composite in (what i asked for).

what do you think :D also id tell you the price im getting them for but i dont want you to pm bomb me :D

The general response you will get is that 16:9 sucks for most old-gen gaming as it stretches everything.

If you are going for a custom lcd/board should have gone for 5" and 4:3 ratio. :wink:

No, very few PS2 screens use the widescreen ability.

The other aspect is the fairly low resolution of the screen. 480x234 is more suited to older systems - newer ones may have unreadable text, for example.
