I never said it was simple... I said it wasn't available.
and by "not that simple" i meant expensive

Things that are this hard to find usually are. I mean, I cant find CRAP on something that'd do the trick.

Minor surface scratches. Yup. I remember it. Didn't have the money to get it. Then I found out how big of a screen I could pack in. So I changed the design a little. Which increased the price.

Neither the $600 or the $1000 includes a battery. As its gonna take me long enough to get a screen for it, let alone get a battery that will power everything nicely. I will get one (Meaning "many"), but it will be long after the project is declared finished.

It has composite and s-video input, so you're all set.
