US suppliers of LinITX/TView screens?

**jjghost** · 02-14-2006, 10:46 PM

Yo! Very long time, no post. Distractions, distractions!

After taking a year off, I've picked up the carputer bug again and have done my homework. I've decided to go with a LinITX/TView display but am having a problem which I never thought I'd face: I can't seem to FIND them for sale in the US!

I've found LinITX for sale at linitx.com, but that carries a pretty hefty shipping charge. A couple of late nights with Google hasn't turned up much else. Can anyone help me out with a link to a US/Canadian supplier of these screens? Just seems crazy that I can't find a reseller in the States.

Many thanks,

noob

Actually, I don't think it is. The screen on MP3Car makes no mention of auto power on, auto switch to reverse camera or having the 5m 3in1 cable.

It's the same just the product description needs to be updated to include those features. The buttons on the faceplate have a very slight difference too.

Thanks for the help, everyone! I'm actually looking for the 8" display more than a 7" but Dynamix seems to have 'em and, as of today (wow - just added), so does MP3Car.

Zip-Lock - Though like the 7" I'm sure the newly added 8" is the newer one with the auto-on, but just checking to be sure since it doesn't say so.

I'm not 100% sure. I'll test it tomorrow.

Zip, I am itching to get this 8" screen from you guys. Are they in stock? And since they are 6.4" tall it will be a tough fit where I want to put it in my dash. Is the housing easily removed and how tall would it be then? Thanks!

They are in stock now. I haven't taken one apart so I can't speak about that.
