4" lcd screens

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

AEIcomp makes one. Expensive but they are the best LCDs you can buy.

For those of you who don't know, AEIcomp screens are the "ultimate" for portables. Crisp display, low power drain, small form factor... but you get what you pay for. They are very very expensive compared to the cheap, somewhat crappy screens found on eBay. However, if you want the portable you are building to be top-of-the-line and as awesome as possible, go for one of those. I haven't purchased one yet, but I may have a project coming soon where I need one.

Is there a company in Europe with a similar product list and pricing as AEIcomp?
