He was very helpful but I found the laptop was clumsy and never really got it working properly.The Lilliput carput works really well, so far. Cost me ~A$960 on ebay -can get it cheaper than that but I upped the memory to 1G and Harddisk to 120Gb. There are some threads about it.
The monitor is under warranty, so unfortunatley I can't pull it open. Not sure of any brand names. I'm sure the guys at LinITX will help with all the dimension details of LCD and PCB. They get back quickly.
so far i'm impressed. On LinITX's website, it mentioned Auto Power On/Off - VGA mode. Does that mean you are able to program (or is it already programmed) for the monitor to power up on the start of your ignition?
Also, may i see some more pictures if you have the time with the monitor at night and especially more in direct sunlight
I'm in the market for a new Touchscreen ASAP. My lilliput is crap
