GROUP BUY: Xenarc 7" VGA LCD Touchscreen


OK - my sponsor agreed to a group buy on the 700TS - 7" VGA LCD Touchscreen



<blockquote><font class="small">In reply to:</font><hr>

Ted,
Sure, I can do $395 shipped for them on the 700TS.

I know the one from digitalww. It is made by a factory in Mainland China called Lilliput. We can get that unit really cheap directly from the manufacturer.

But then not only is the Hitachi TFT LCD Panel they use refurbished, but the inverter and other electronic parts are recycled too. What is funny is digitalww even tries to hype up this unit by posting comparison pictures of this unit with our last year model. Anyways, our monitor also uses high quality video chipset from Philips which does high quality scaling and anti-aliasing.

<hr></blockquote>

Decide for yourselves, but if you are looking for slick unit (I've got one and am working on a slicker install!) then look no further. Post your name if you are interested and I will contact the group tomorrow with purchase instructions.

Regular price on this is $479.

Re: GROUP BUY: Xenarc 7" VGA LCD Touchscreen

Is it possible to get this unit as a kit for custom installs? I'm not sure the monitor casing and all would fit into the cubby for those without NAV. I'd like mine to pop in and out of the cubby like some others here have done.

Re: GROUP BUY: Xenarc 7" VGA LCD Touchscreen

I am actually removing mine from its frame/case, but then again they are sponsoring me and will assist with warranty issues.

You would have to decide for yourself if you want to remove the casing....not unlike modding a PS2 or laptop and expecting them to warranty it.

There is a seal over one of the screws to maintain warranty compliancy.

ALL: I am checking on the min for group buy... it should be low...also checking on payment options.. Will get back to you today..

Re: GROUP BUY: Xenarc 7" VGA LCD Touchscreen

Too bad this isn't the 700TSV with ultrabright option, otherwise I'd consider this...Oh well...Good to see we have some creative and forward-thinking G owners here...

Re: GROUP BUY: Xenarc 7" VGA LCD Touchscreen

OK - they're gonna get back to me on a price for the 700TSV .

As far as the question regarding return policy, it is 30-days plus a 15% restocking fee if the unit is in resalable condition.

They are gonna put a special code in their online webstore for us to use... I'll PM those who have already (or will in the future) let me know that they are interested. They are giving this price to the forum, so there will be no minimum number of buyers.... as soon as I get the code, you can order.

I'll try and take some 15sec mpgs tomorrow on the bench (it's not installed just yet) of how it works and post it up.

Cheers, ted

Re: GROUP BUY: Xenarc 7" VGA LCD Touchscreen

What's the difference between this model and the tsV? Are there pictures of the two or a listing of specs?

Re: GROUP BUY: Xenarc 7" VGA LCD Touchscreen

Whoa! Group buy? I'll have to say I'm in as well. I've been planning to do this for some time but haven't gotten it in gear to get the major parts together. I can't miss out on this!

Re: the TSV. It looks like that'd be a wise choice because the touchscreen dims the unit some. Here's what they have posted on the site for apparently the 700TS:

LCD Brightness (w/o Touchscreen)*: 400 cd/m²
Display Brightness (w/ Touchscreen): 280 cd/m²

Link and Pricing - GROUP BUY

OK - here's the scoop. They've updated their buy page for us, go to their online store at www.xenarcdirect.com and select either the 700TS or TSV. Enter <font color=red>G35CFWX</font color=red> as your coupon/discount code. It will give you an $84 discount for these two items.

This offer is good until Nov 30th. I have asked for an extension thru next week becuase of holiday travel and all, so we'll see. However, the deal won't get any better, so act now if you've got the quid.
