I don’t suppose there are any plans to offer a module so that this can be driven by any arbitrary VGA or DVI source?
I’d love to combine this with a BeagleBoard or a micro ITX to make my dream tablet.
you can purchase something like the RM3451 controller off of ebay for around $35USD if you want to drive it from DVI or VGA.
in addition, you can drive the Pixel Qi with a SN75LVDS83B connected to a BeagleBoard or PandaBoard parallel LCD expansion header.
