>The folks at Raspberry Pi have announced a new touchscreen component for people using boards to create miniature touchscreen appliances: The 5-inch Raspberry Pi Touch Display 2 is a 720p IPS multi-touch screen that's natively supported by the Raspberry Pi OS and includes mounting holes on the back to make it easy to build integrated all-in-one devices.

Ummm... I hate to break the news, but 5" TFT displays are widely available for $19. Just sayin'.

Yeah, I think they are just trying to pump out more "branded" stuff that they have on the HCL since a lot of people/companies build products out of RPI's now even though they don't want you to know it.

Absolutely. I always look inside equipment and some form of Raspberry Pi.

  • Pro-Ject Stream Box S2 Ultra
  • iFi Audio ZEN Stream
  • Volumio Rivo

Are a few.

Agree, I just bought one for $17 bucks. Maybe I need to make the tracker tracker and use it in the car.

I guess here is as good of a place than any to ask:

What are some good ideas to use this little screen on?

The first thought I had was use this plus a pie and a small battery bank to make a gameboy like emulator that could run all older consoles/handhelds etc.
