Little USB monitor

[x88x]

I saw these pop up on Giz/etc a while back, but this is the first place I've seen them for sale. They're a little pricy, but are just oozing with potential. Little 7" displays that run entirely off one USB line.

Display size - 7"

Tons of potential is right! Makes modding a screen into your computer a ton easier. +rep for a great find.

Thanks! I think I might actually be getting one for my fileserver build...together with a digitizer, I'd have a 7" touch display for ~$150. Throw in a tiny keyboard, and things could get interesting.

Score!!

Check out these ones as well, touch screen versions!

Yeah, unfortunately the touch-screen version is $200 versus $130 for the normal one...plus ~$30-40 for a digitizer... heheh

Wow cool stuff. I would like to see one of them next to the EEEpc while someone is working. the screen on those laptops are not much bigger

Haha, yeah. They're actually the same size and resolution as the 700 series Eee's.
