Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I've seen, that these displays are available between 40-50€.
To me, they look real interesting, but only support 1024x600. The touch interface is USB, but does it need a special driver or would the standard mouse driver work?
How do they handle lower resolutions..would it be compatible to PicoMite modes?
Anyone tried?

I purchased one just before Christmas for about £30 - although they are now just under £50. It came with a power and HDMI cable and absolutely no documentation.

It is a heavy, solidly built unit and works well with an HDMI signal (including sound) but (as already mentioned) it has some kind of 'USB-like' VGA connector that I've been unable to identify. It would be handy to be able to connect it to VGA, so any ideas  about how to do so would be welcome.

It also has a 'touch' connector but I've not explored that.

Regards,
