Anyone have a source for a small LCD that can display a CGA signal?

I'd like to build a small portable jamma test bed.. an LCD would be
perfect for portability.

Thanks,
Mike
 
Best bet is a PSOne LCD screen. But you're gonna pay upwards of $30-40 for it. They pop up on eBay quite a bit, but they're usually bundled with a PSOne.

Here's one that I'm watching - I'm hoping to snag it for a decent price. Please don't bid against me on it :(

I know that LyonsArcade is selling one right now...

I've researched this for quite a bit, and that's really the best option I've found.
 
I use a PSOne LCD and it really works great. It's easy to modify to work, and it's light, small, and durable in it's plastic case. In the attached picture, I have mine hooked up to a JAMMA Galaga board. I don't have mine built into a "test rig", but it could easily be done.

That seems like a decent unit.. got links to any documentation on it?

Positive or negative sync?

Has anyone else used these in a jamma test bed? I'd probably want to remove it from
the plastic and mount it in a small box or case.
