Yep, and since power on/off is controllable it's bye bye to all the annoying "hibernating" "resuming to windows" texts.Originally Posted by gorkRS232
You can simply have it switch on and fade in once windows/your front end is loaded and then fade out and switch off when you turn the thing off.
Sure, it'll be blank for a few seconds longer but I'd prefer that over "resuming from windows".
Just need to get some connectors so I can start playing around with some software to control the thing

where did you get it?
Local distributor over here in Sweden, you're probably better off calling Promate in the US asking them for a local source or if you could buy it from them.

So if I wanted to have the same setup you have I needPart numbers:
JLPA070VW01-2 (TFT + touch integrated, ~ 320cd)
A070VW01 (TFT panel , 400cd)
JDBK070F2B1P (VGA controller kit, incl. cables, inverter and OSD panel)
JDBK070G1A0P (AV/VGA kit, same as above)
JDBK070T1A0P (LVDS-card for A070VW01)
JTHS070F1A0 (7'' touch panel)
JTHC084DUA1 (USB touch controller)
The kit.
JLPA070VW01-2; I assume it comes with the USB controller
JDBK070F2B1P; or JDBK070G1A0P if I want A/V inputs?
JTHC084DUA1; Needed if touch intergrated panel doesn't come with controller
What is JDBK070T1A0P LVDS-card for A070VW01? I assume you only need that if you don't buy the integrated panel.
Exactly !
The "KIT" is only the VGA controller, inverter and OSD buttons, so you'll need the JTHC084DUA1 (USB Touch screen controller).
The LVDS interface is used instead of the VGA controller if you'd wish to use LVDS but that's a straight LVDS interface without all the fancy features of the VGA controller, so in my opinion it's not worth it for the sake of LVDS.
My order was:
JLPA070VW01-2 7" TFT with touch
JDBK070G1A0P 7,0"AV/VGA DVB Kit
JTHC084DUA1 USB Ctrl RES 4W
Managed to play around with it a bit more today and depending on what people mean by
"exposed to direct sunlight" I think it handles it pretty well.
I also managed to get 800X480. At least I think so, because the ODS never displays what mode it's in so you don't have any way to tell.
I'll check into that a bit more.
If you get the sunlight directly at the screen you cant see sh-t due to all the reflections,
you could have all the backlight you want and I still think you wouldn't be able to see anything.
The camera isn't able to capture the correct image, but you can make out some parts
of the display, but it's not really usable.
It would have been sweet to have the transflective version, but not even my Ipaq handles
direct sunlight very well since it has an ever smoother surface than the AU screen does.
Luckily sunlight almost never hit the display directly (unless you own a convertible)
and if the sun hits the display at an angle it's a lot better. This is at ~45 degrees.
The brightness is at about 80% so it has a bit more to give, but then the colors start to wash out so I like it better the way it is.
the setup is a little pricey, but looks much better than lilliput or xenarc offerings
The Xenarc is $375 @ mp3car store, I'd expect this kit would be around $350 in the US.
We (myself and ziplock) are in Taiwan now where they make this screen. We just had a good meeting where we talked about integrating this into future products with price drops. There will be more details soon.
Way to go
Have they showed you the transflective version ?
A double DIN case with this screen pre-installed as a flip down unit would be sweet.
