Here's a new adapter for the Newhaven 4.3" touchscreens:
Just this NH4 adapter, a Propeller Platform, and a touchscreen is all you need.
The touchscreens are available from Digikey, Mouser, or Newhaven directly.
You can also use the adapter with a breadboard or any other Propeller setup that gives you P16..P29.
The touchscreen controller also gives you 4 analog inputs you can use.
It also can give you the temperature.
The code and design are nearly identical to that of the PSB with the Samsung 4.3" touchscreens.
I'm still testing this one, but if everything checks out, they'll be for sale soon.
Still working out the price, but I think it will be $19.99 with free shipping.

The backlight is slightly different, but they work just fine with this adapter.
They don't have a touchscreen though.
So, if you don't need a touchscreen, I can make you a great deal, say $14.99 for the screen with free shipping.
It is possible to add a touchscreen to these, even though Newhaven told me you cannot...
Here's a $4 touchscreen from Ebay that I soldered on.
There's probably a better way to do this though. These solder bridges I made here may not be very stable:
There may be a better way to make the connection, maybe with a hot air gun or something...
