Hello? Anybody?

I'm very sure that armen thinks these screens are coming, but the other screen has been coming soon for that long "Due to production delays on the manufacturers part the release date has been pushed back again and again and again."

I'm just saying, don't count your chickens before they've hatched.

Hi Guys,

I'm a bit lost after reading this whole thread... I dont think my issue has been touched however... I already own a Xenarc 700TSV, will there be a motorized housing compatible with it?

Will it be 1Din? Is there manual one that is available 1din? Is it 1din heihgt? (I have more width to work with as my factory HU was 1 din high, but wider.

There will be a motorized housing for the lilliput, which might work for the xenarc, who knows?

The non-motorized housing will fit both screens.

I thought you were gonna hold back your vaporware thing... Well, I guess you sorta did, but still. You show a lot of doubt. And I didn't forget the trauma of the other screens...

I re-read it and it's still there: "Monitor will also come with a built-in TV Tuner. This feature will be available at no extra cost. TV tuner will be available in both NTSC and PAL."

And the 6 pin plug is likely for multiple lines: ground, +12v constant, +12v switched to turn on unit, +12v switched to turn on external electronics, etc...

Are there any specs on how to fit the monitor in the housing? I looks like no soldering is requierd because the front panel looks just like lilliputs.

Have been reading this board for probaly 6 months off and on now and i figured this would be a good time for me to chime in light of such monumental event.

First thing I noticed is this seems to be the same lcd as the Xenarc according to product numbers on Digitalww.com. (Panasonic ((EDTCB18QEF))LCD Panel). And second, Dont get me wrong I've been waiting for this for a year now and I'm as excited as everybody else but after looking closely at the pics, I have a few concerns on quality.

Look at the plastic trim on the part of the unit. Seems to be bent, possibly by Armen as he was assembling it, but none the less bent. Also the buttons look a bit flimsy like they would break after a continued use. I know this doesn't seem like much but everything counts when spending $500 and I would like to keep this unit a while.

My thoughts brings me to two questions...

1) Does that mean the controller and everything else is the same since the lcd is the same?

2) I wonder what the reliability on the motors are going to be?

PS - I will probaly be getting one of these as soon as theyre available for shipping. All funds are gathered and ready and I will personally post my first hand opinions on this unit if no one does before me.
