I contacted him by e-mail and you can buy direct for $125. I think that it is just the screen and the inverter. He says it comes with cable also.

which controller will work with these? will this one work? http://www.mp3car.com/cgi-bin/ultima...c&f=4&t=000293

[gregulator]

yeah, good question about the controller... i would like to know as well, this could be a nice setup...

22us is alot better than 125us, says comes with driver board too plus a sharp LQ9 D-161 would work with pretty much anything.

It's a 12-bit color TFT. (4096 colors)

Pinout is here (I think.)

Cable Kit (If needed) is here

"With Driver board" - possibly for the touchscreen?

I am pretty new to the full screen LCD's so I just wanted to ask some more questions.
You say:

How? What controller do you need?
I would really like a full graphic display, but am not sure where to start.
thanks

I think he means that this screen is pretty widely supported with the popular controller chipsets. For example, most of the popular Chips & Technologies chipsets (ie.. C&T 65545, C&T 65550, C&T 69000) will work with this LCD.

I won the auction for one of these, so I'll let you all know how good they are. Hopefully it won't be too difficult to get it connected to my PCM-5862.

Yeah, let me know how it works out. I am very interested. Good luck.
