The FPGA thing makes me wonder about replacing the LCD PCB altogether... ever chased the various posts about Kitsch Bent's LCD replacement?

You can find a fair amount that are in bad cosmetic condition, but the innards are perfect.

Is there any way to fix this? Soooo annoyed!!

Doing a backlight mod and slipped as the last corner came off and ripped the bottom screen ribbon cable in half...

Assuming I won't be able to fix it is there a way to get a replacement cable or a new screen????


Thanks!!!
