We're looking for a few good accessories for the Matchbox PC including small displays, both b/w and color. Here are some pixel sizes of some displays we've considered, in decreasing order of size. Rex display 330 u (77 dpi) PC110 display 150 u (170 dpi) (a Citizen L6481L-FF) What we want 100 u (250 dpi) Microdisplay 15.7 u (1600 dpi) Any good candidates out there for the hundred-micron ballpark that we're looking for? One possibility is to project the Microdisplay onto a small screen, magnifying it 7x, or more if you want a larger image. The bulk of such a projector could be reduced by organizing its optics so that it could fold up to fit in a pocket. If the optics were kept separate from the display itself one could have multiple optical systems, one for viewing the screen through an eyepiece as a virtual image, HMD/faxview style, another for projecting a real image onto any handy surface such as a sheet of paper, and so on. The display itself could be incorporated into the Matchbox PC, so that even without any optics one could still have a readable 10 character x 5 line display for emergency use.
