Need advice fast! (help-a-noob)

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.

For a PSone portable i need help to decide which screen to use. I want to mount the screen on the lid. Since the official Sony screen is 5 in itself (just like the lid) i wont be able to mount it right on. SO please help

I would go with the Hip Gear... just don't expect it to stay at $.99

Use the PSone screen. for $50 at Gamestop, you get a psone, which youll probably need if you fry the first. Big screen, easy to connect. I think Hip Gear runs on 12v when the PSone and its screen run on 7.5, so I think the psone screen is da bombdiggity.

What about the Intec screen? (it's all I could find)
I don't want top hook up 8 1.5V batteries to use it without the power cord! :(

(Clear as a bell, though. :D )
