Re: 7" Screen for cheap
That's a pretty good looking screen there, I wouldn't jump to conclusions just yet but it looks promising. It may have the potential to be in many portables as long as it doesn't suck up too much power. *bookmarked*
Re: 7" Screen for cheap
Pretty good value, but you get what you pay for. Widescreen, too. But it has an inverter. Overall, interesting hacking project.
I lol'ed at that.and play your XBOX, Playstation, Gamecube or Nintendo
Re: 7" Screen for cheap
Found it even cheaper on amazon. $29.45 + $4.49 shipping. I'm tempted to pick one up to see how it is, at that price.

Re: 7" Screen for cheap
Holy moly! It's currently going for FIVE DOLLARS with a mail-in rebate!
Hey, sup?
Re: 7" Screen for cheap
Right now its free. I assume this would still be considered "unusable" based on the FAQ in the forum? I want to build a screen inside of my x360, but not sure what to use. Seen a few threads but not a complete how-to.

Re: 7" Screen for cheap
Free?!? Where!
It's not the best screen. Low brightness, low resolution, but it can do VGA.
jj: If you want to put a screen inside your 360, buy at least an 11" XGA LCD. It will cost you about $200

Re: 7" Screen for cheap
Well isn't this nice?
Ordered this screen about a week ago, just got in today.
All looks good, thing works, so I figure I'll go ahead and print out the rebate.
And the item is no longer on their site....
Can't retrieve the rebate forms.
Ain't that great?
