This is odd, I was browsing shopeio when I stumbled upon this in the clearance section.
A 6.4" Color LCD with composite and analog RGB in for $40.00.
I know what everyone is thinking: oh, big deal, it's just the LCD panel, no controller. I thought this at first too. However, after reading through the datasheet it seems that it has a built in controller (on page 7 it tells you that pin 11 is composite in, etc.)
Anyone have the heads up on this one?
I did do a quick search, and I'm pretty sure no one has posted this before.
Potential Screen Source...

I think this has been posted before on these forums, but I can't remember if anyone said they'd ordered the screen. Looks to be a good deal, though.

Description says "composite video ready"... to me that implies it doesn't need any extra circuitry.
The $99 kit includes cable & inverter - I guess if you buy the $40 LCD only, then you need to find your own cable & inverter?
Looks like the inverter in the kit is Sampo SE4602XS ($15), which means you're effectively paying $44 for the cable!
