Is the BlackBerry 7250 screen usable?

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.

Is the BlackBerry 7250 screen usable?

Hi Everyone!

I'm new to the forums and new to console hacking. I have an old BlackBerry 7250 laying around doing nothing, and I was wondering if this screen would be usable for a console hack. I can't find many specs on it, but it is a color LCD. Not sure if it takes composite. I haven't cracked it open yet, but it might come to that since I have to do it anyway.

Does anyone have any experience with these? Any help would be appreciated!

After reading the sticky about what screens can and cannot be used, I have a feeling that since this is an integrated screen, it won't be usable...or at least not easily. It just seems like such a waste to throw away.

you might me able to sell it on ebay for a few dollars. Other than as a replacement blackberry screen, you're right; it's going to be pretty useless.
