I hardly feel that any company involved (mp3car or FPD) is gouging prices on these screens.
Is it more expensive than a standard lilliput?
Sure
However one must compare it with other products that meet similar requirements. Lets delve into that for a second. The point of this product first and foremost is sunlight readability. Secondary factors include: 7inch screen size, touch screen, vga input, 800 x 600 resolution.
Other products that meet those requirements:
High Brightness LCD
and
Transreflective LCD
Requesting a price quote on the transreflective model above yields a range of 2100 - 2400 dollars depending on video input options (svideo for example) and touch screen type.
The High brightness model above clearly priced around $1000.
There are countless other such products, all much higher in price than what is offered here. And to top it off, they lack features inherent in lilliputs. No remote control, 4:3 as opposed to widescreen, additional video inputs cost more to add on... etc.
The point is THIS product IS the cheapest most feature filled Transreflective display currently on the market. Please stop compairing it to a stardard xenarc or lilliput, and compare it to its real sunlight readable competition. Finally a product is offered that maintains sunlight readability, but negates the industrial-esque cost associated with it.
Cheap is a relative term, just look at what is being offered before denoucing it as a rip-off of sorts.

Please post on the forums! Chances are, someone else has or will have the same questions as you!
Holy **** man, WELL SAID!! When comparing apples to apples, this IS the best deal. PERIOD!

Civiputer: Dont have one anymore, but here is what is used to be!
It isn't about me not waiting.. I bought my screen close to a year ago when the transreflective upgrade wasn't even being thought about
What happens when you buy something, and a newer, better, faster, better looking version comes out?
You sell what you have and buy the new one, or deal with the one you have.

Hey Zip-Lock,
Have there already been so many pre-orders that the next batch at the end of July are already sold out? Or are there enough coming that we can still place an order now and expect it to ship by the end of July?
I'd also like my question on the bezel answered if possible.
I don't think I have the confidence to build the screen from several seperate parts.
Will the ones available in July be shipped in their original bezels? (i.e. as if they were regular Lilliput LCD monitors) ?
There's still time if you order now and get in on the next batch.Have there already been so many pre-orders that the next batch at the end of July are already sold out? Or are there enough coming that we can still place an order now and expect it to ship by the end of July?
Yes, that's not a problem. Having a monitor come with a bezel will soon be the standard option.
Any update on this, especially on one in a G35 mount?
Thanks
Dave
