Thanks

Personally, I take the view that people who do not write what their item actually is in the title and not what it's similar to are up to no good.

Looks the same as coming DigitalWW item: http://www.digitalww.com/VGA_TM_710VG.htm , but without TouchScreen

Actual end-user price from Lilliput directly is 190 USD.

mpattonm, is that for the VGA + touch screen version? If so where can I get one? Can you give us the model that Lilliput sells at that price.

mpattonm

no, its without touchpanel, as mentioned above - I do not need it. I have got mine directly from Lilliput, shipped via UPS for 15 USD in 3 days. I do not remeber the model, but they currently have only one 7" wide format with VGA input.

How did you get in touch with them?

It's perfect but without TS and probaly needs a voltage regulator (Vin 12v).

And yes, where did you buy it? I had tried to contact with
George Chen (Sales Dept. of www.made-in-china.com) but
no answer, and now I have tried again (just in case I put wrong
email) but without expectation because I'm end-user.

mpattonm, are you really satisfied now that you got the lilliput? Could you take some pictures of the unit you got and how the windows desktop looks on it?

Thank ya kindly

Sorry, do not have digital camera yet, no plans either. However, from what i have seen about Xenarc, the picture quality is same. Fonts are well readable and sharp in size of 9 pts.
Well, there is one bad thing about it, I have not managed getting it synced to 848x480 on VIA Epia M board (S3 CLE266 graphics down), but it synced well to this resolution on my desktop nVidia graphics using PowerStrip. I have also tested WinXP Embedded drivers that offer 848x480 by default with no luck, but everyone knows S3 drivers are crappy.
This makes me think Xenarc might be more tolerable to wider range of H/V frequencies.
However, 800x600 works fine in 60,75 and 85 Hz of std. refresh rates. This resolution is fine for me while I can use taller fonts (so they do not look weir stretched) and DVD/DIVX movies can be stretched to proper 16:9 format using codec settings.

Ok thanks, cause I am interested in the unit.

I really wonder if I have to go for the ~$200 price tag for my purpose or if i can get away with a cheaper composite LCD.

See, i'm actually gonna use mine for an HTPC project I'm working on, and basically only ever need it to display two things, a "virtual lcd" that I'm still a long way from finishing that will show info from zoomplayer, and a realtime spectrum analyzer.

Check out what I mean here

And don't laugh too hard at the "Virtual LCD" program, it's just getting started, and I'm having no luck interfacing with stinkin' Zoom Player's stinkin' LCD API.

Anyway, this will be mounted on the front of an atx desktop case, and will only be viewed inside, so I dunno if the nit rating is that important.

The nice thing about VGA lcd's though is I would just need to hook it up to my radeon 9000 agp card, and run a multimonitor setup with the s-video acting as the primary monitor on my tv, and the lcd acting as a secondary monitor.

Otherwise, i'd have to see if i could pick up a cheap pci card with tv out and run a cheaper composite lcd through that (~$130-$150) for the whole thing. But then I worry about having two cards running two TV displays, and no vga connection whatsoever...i dunno if that's even possible. Might have to get a scan converter, and then those are expensive too.

Well, let me know your thoughts guys...(besides "how the heck did this idiot get so off topic!")

MichaelG

Where did you buy this screen for $190? What is the website/phone number/contact point. I think that everyone would like to know this if we can get a VGA screen at this price. Please let us in on it.
