K-mart is blowing out their PSone stuff. The 5" LCD screen is $13 - the box maybe marked otherwise, but they are ringing up $13 everywhere. Also, the Sony PSone car power adaptors are ringing up $4.

These are the genuine Sony items, not the knockoffs.

---------------------------------------------------------

I was able to pick up the last 2 at my Kmart yesterday.  Oh imagine the Mame cab possibilities!  These are easily hackable aparently.

all you need is a mini > rca connecter to give it an rca input
check this link for vga input hack

Slick deal...

I've been wanting to pick up some of these for quite some time but alas, there no longer appears to be any KMart stores open in my area.

What state are you in?  that seems to be a really good deal and may lead to me making a portable n64.

I called 7 Kmart's in the portland area and they are all sold out too, looks like I was a week too late! Anyone have one they bought for cheap they would sell me?

Told a buddy of mine about this deal, and he just picked up *four* of them.  There are three left, and I'll be snagging them tomorrow.

I bought all five at my local Kmart.  I plan to keep them for the community.  I will be using one on my cp in conjunction with the J5 viewer to see what controls are needed for each game.  Here is my cp layout and a screenshot of Johnny5.

I also picked up several... so that means that there will (eventually) be actual software to run on these screens. 

Most of the stuff is top secret, but rest assured, you need to go get some if you can because once I get done on the software end, everyone will want one on their cab.  ;)
