Lightbulb High Definition Panel monitor

Anyone has view this?



It's an High Definition replacing monitor for the 5'' Audio 20 screen.

I undertand that these ares the features:
  • High Definition 800x480 6'' touch screen
  • It keeps Original Radio, CD, Bluetooth and other information (handled with original controls)
  • It allows to add GPS module via RGB input (it should operate with touch screen)
  • It allows to add rear camera
  • It allows to add other input video modules (DVD, TV, etc)

Manufacturer.

Here installation manual.

Videos (I think thath are about this monito, but I'm not sure...).
Example1, example2, example3.

FOSP provides a High definition panel, which is compatible with the current Mercedes W204 5-inch panel[C200K,C230,C260 etc.], but offers very high resolution and anti-glare touch screen. It is an ideal solution for adding navigation function to the W204. After replacing the panel, the navigation display, DVD video and reverse camera video can be displayed through the driving board which goes together with the panel.

you guys realize 800x480 is not "high definition". HD is an overused buzz word right now.

Sure it is not HD resolution.

But 800x480 is better than original Audio 20 5'' screen with resolution 280x100

It is other device (interface) that only adds video input to original screen.

--------------------

I think the "High Definition 800x480 6'' touch screen" is better, more friendly and easier to install. It incorporates video input by itself. And if you want to add GPS module, you can use the touch screen to navigate, you don't need other remote control or keyboard to navigate.

I e-mailed the company when I ran across this post the other night but haven't heard anything back from them yet. I suspect this was something that was shown at CES in 2010 (that's what my Googling turned up) and was then never brought to market.

they want to know if you're going to order 1 or 100. price is obviously the highest for 1. arrange a group buy

It's suggestive that they're looking for a distributor for their goods.

The company wrote me back just now with a US e-mail address to contact, I'm doing so right now.
