Good places to find a hip gear screen

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

I don't think we have one of those in Wisconsin (at least not where I live). Sometime this week I'll call up places 'til I get a hold of one. Does anyone recommend a certain kind (XBOX, PS2, Gamecube)? Are some easier to hack than others?

I was at a EB today located in Chicago Ridge IL. today that has one for sale. I believe EB has a website, and you could probably order it from there.

BTFingW: So what? Does that make you feel smart now that you've mentioned something that nobody gives a sh*@ about? I don't see you giving useful info on where to find a Hip gear screen. But instead, we find you trying to act like a know it all which doesn't make you look cool at all. Instead you appear to be a snot nosed geek instead. And another thing, any moron such as you could find the Electronic Boutique website by just doing a google search. I could have added a link myself, but unlike you, I don't have a lot of time on my hands!

Yeah, right! Like you never post anything pointless?
I think his post is even more pointless than his life. I don't take loser sh@# from anybody. So if you want to play nice, I'll play nice. But if you want to be an a-hole and post stupid sh$% like that guy did, then I'm going to post even more stupider, and more annoying garbage right back. Take this for example: http://www.kfc.com/ or http://www.fedex.com/.
I hate know it alls and stuck up snobs! I really do. So my response to those of you who feel the need to stop playing with your portable (You know what I'm talking about. The one you play with while you are looking at internet porn.) is have a nice day! No...that's not it! Wait... Oh yeah... Here it is! Take your finger and shove it up your sphincter. Then put your finger in your mouth and suck on it for a while! Then write a post about your experience. See ya!

I went to a local store (AceBuyers) that sells all sorts of old/used stuff, and they've got a Playstation 2 hipgear screen there... I laughed when I saw they were trying to sell it for $75...

You know geeoh, I have something to say to you, but I can't say it on these forums, so why don't you give me your email address so that this "snot nosed geek" can blow his nose your way. I was making a point, and I was doing it at the sametime that I helped YOU find their website, and considerring that you only joined the forum 10 days ago, I wouldn't suggest making verbal attacks on multiple members who have (for some reason) helped you when you had questions. Attacking me privately is one thing, but going after soundwave, especially if you are posting on the forum, is crossing the line. So you have 2 choices, either shutup and learn to accept the help we give, or get the hell out of here. So why don't you stick that in your pipe and shove it up your ass!

I appologize if I have offended anybody by what I have said here, but I will not allow him to bad-mouth our users, and get away with it. The only user who is should be offended by this post is geeoh.
