For the $45 USD (plus shipping ) its a neat idea for a portable device..
I'd love to hear if anyone is using it.. I think it would be great with the YBOX2 plus some mods.
Pocket Doggy Kong Anyone?

Yep, it's been discussed at great length here:

I've got one that I've been playing around with, and it's very nice. No pictures to post yet though.

KPR it's a great little device, with an excellent clear diplay, well worth the investment! :)

KPR, they are great little displays, really really clear, it is the perfect companion for a Prop setup http://forums.parallax.com/images/smilies/yeah.gif
Taking into consideration they are rendering a composite input I was particularly impressed by how well the driver board handled everything I threw at it.
I run a Security CCTV company and my engineering staff were very impressed and let me tell you it needs a lot to impress them lol
I also have to say how good Brillidea's customer service is, I had a stuck pixel on the one I bought, I asked Timothy if there was a way to fix it and he very kindly sent me a replacement straight away.
How good is that?
Regards,
Coley

I bought 2. Superb device. Very clear and crisp. I use one on my demo board and total between the two devices·takes up less than a square foot of space next to my laptop.
Timothy and his lovley wife are a pleasure to deal with, not to mention I have experienced 7 days or less shipping to the states.
I'm looking at his PropBlade and LED Painter for an upcoming job. Looks like what the doctor ordered!

Great service as well.. I used paypal and somehow missed the ship to, easily fixed by the, quick to respond.. I really really really really really really can't wait to get it now.. or see whats next.. 5 inches would be great..

Thanks for bringing this display into my mind. I was just looking for a nice color display, but was only aware of the monochrome display of brilldae.

Agree. Got mine fast. It is hard to believe that it is working off of a composite signal. Not the easiest thing to mount, but very economical and powerful compared to many of the serial LCDs out there.
