[Gta04-owner] No gta-04 available

[Thomas HOCEDEZ]

Hi, I found this one :
http://honglixin-hk.en.alibaba.com/product/555784898-213451334/LQ070Y3DG3B_SHARP_7_0_SIZE_LCD_TFT_LED_800_480_WLED.html

As the price on the page is 10$ (!!), I prefered to send a request for 500 pcs. I'll post the answer a soon as I got it.

Regards

Thomas

| Hi,
| 
| 
| You are unfortunately the second last on the backorder list. So it
| will take a little longer.
| 
| 
| A rough estimate for smallest quantities (e.g. 5 units):
| 
| * a GTA04 (custom) board inside - could become cheaper if no UMTS &
| GPS capabilities
| * a Sharp LQ070Y3DG3B display [1] ~130 EUR (incl. VAT) @ Avnet
| Express [2]
| * Battery ~30 EUR (incl. VAT)
| * PCB + internal components incl. production ~50-100 EUR (incl. VAT)
| * Shapeways case ~77 EUR (incl. VAT)
| * plus UMTS antenna, GPS antenna (if wanted) ~30 EUR
| 
| If someone knows a cheaper source for a display than [2], please let
| us know.
| 
| Provided there is enough interest, we could offer a kit made of
| battery and
| complete PCB and offer the required GTA04-Custom variant (there are
| some
| connectors not  installed). And everyone could buy a display and a
| Shapeways
| case whereever he/she likes.
| 
| Would that be interesting to have components DIY? Or would there
| be more interest in completely assembled devices?
|
