I'm in the process of buying the 6.5inch XGA NEC display for a totally different purpose than what you guys are doing, but it boils down to needing an outdoor readable display so here I am.

(Long time lurker, never posted before, this forum has great tech info by the way and I have used the info here numerous times)

I contacted NEC directly and was sent to a distributor. The rep has been very helpful and also mentioned that they (them or NEC, not entirely sure) have bonded 90% transmissive A/R coated capacitive touchscreens to the 6.5" display and that the price was nominal (150$ for the bonding+ touch screen cost) I will post more once I learn more to give back to you guys but this screen seems to be an awesome package for 375$ roughly w/ XGA resolution.

I also read the warnings of UV exposure and will try to find out more from the rep about possible damage. I find it odd that a display marketed for outdoor use would not have a safeguard against normal UV exposure. It defeats the purpose to have an A/R surface if I have to lay down another film on top of it.
