EBY701 - Replacing cracked touch screen

**fixed** · 09-19-2009, 09:33 AM

Hi,

I've just managed to crack my second EBY701 touch screen; was a bit clumsy on install, too much pressure on one corner.

I've pulled the assembly apart & the LCD seems completely fine, though.

Are there replacement touch screen units available? Are the touch screen replacements for the 619/629 Lilliput compatible?

Will add - this looks like it is the original EBY701; I ordered it from Bybyte in the metal casing.

From exhaustive Googling it appears the touchscreen kits available on ebay for the eeepc 701's is actually the same touchscreen. Ordered, hopefully will fit.

I think you can pretty much use any 7 inch touch screen, as long as its a 4-wire version.
