Brightness!!! Holy Cow. If this can compete with the price of the transflective, we may be getting more options!

But the resolution is VGA...
Maybe a PSOne screen hack would work on this too!

Nice! Button-less operation for easy DIY projects! Hopefully they'll have the digitizer option available.

So the characters '7-inch wide VGA TFT-LCD' don't show up in Texas?  |

if it's just the raw LCD, it's going to be difficult to mold in or mold to though.
Perhaps the final version at least has an enclosure.

Well seeing as a lot of us end up taking the bare LCD and controller boards out of their case anyway, I think it will help remove a step. |

If this is a standard size, then a lilli enclosure or something could probably be modded pretty cheaply. The overall "active area" dimensions look rather promising.

right - but most people still use the bezel to mold to.
It's a bit difficult to mold to nothing..

Seeking a test version 8"
We've contacted LG-Phillips a few weeks ago to try to get a test version of this unit fitted as a touch screen with a VGA compatible input.
They responded initially and advised us that they would have to modify the unit for touchscreen operation. LG does produce these for others as a OEM, but does not sell one themselves. I'm guessing that Mirco/Ford will lock up the entire output; but that's just a wild guess. I'm hoping to be able to test something soon.
This link provides their a small glimpse of ther future thinking.
