Just was reading the thread about case mods and looked up the source of the LCD screen the guy used. I noticed the prices of lcd's have dropped to the point where they are reasonable or about 1/10 of what they were when I first started working on my project. The high brightness or high nit lcd panels are about 3x the cost of the standard tft panels. My project requires visibility in sunlight. So here is the question... Would it be possible or has anyone taken a standard tft lcd panel and added high brightness side lighting (cft or led) and managed to make it work in bright sunlight? Or am I missing something on the differences of a standard lcd verses a high nit lcd?
