5" VGA monitors? LCD? Self-contained or just the guts?

Guts... an LCD and a controller board, plus cables for VGA, power and video in.

I used double sided tape to attach the LCD controller board to the back of the LCD. I am charging my camera's batteries so I can take some shots to post.

I just finished tuning the 640x480 70Hz driver to be pixel perfect on the monitor, and I am drooling over my demo

and 800x600 looks really good too!

Thanks Hanno!

I've almost got the 6x8 font renderer working for the 256x192 mode - I am interleaving Morpheus work with PropellerBasic work :)
