Re: URGENT Re: Bedroom telly



Keith,

You're right - although the 7" screen has high horizontal resolution at 1440
its vertical resolution at 234 would make it impossible to use as a PC
monitor.
I wanted a larger screen but a 7" widescreen is the largest screen that will
fit where I want it to go.
I've got a 5" standard TFT which is brilliant for video - even looks OK when
viewing a quad screen on CCTV.
Waiting for the 6.4" TFT to come for HomeVision project.
