Curious....

How good of a picture would one get on something of this size? I mean, how visable could this be ...if say... it was mounted in front of the dash? (odd xbox + xbox media player idea....)

no idea, but for $20... It cant hurt to test.

Thanks for the heads-up, hevnsnt. I picked up two in Brighton MA this morning. I intend to pull the TFTs out and investigate.

I don't suppose you're near enough that you'd like to grab me a couple would you...? Anyone in the Boston area? I work in Somerville but was home (nr NH) before I saw this. Only Brighton and Braintree have them now.

hmm... what are you guys using these for? They seem pretty cool and I'd like to pick one up for the price just to mess around with... but I don't know where in the car to put this.

I'm thinking cheap personal DVD screens.
