Help me select a display?

Right now I am using a Logitech G510 and love the LCD display for system info.  I want to move to a mechanical keyboard and I can not find one with a built in LCD panel.  That leaves me with looking for a LCD panel that I can sit on my desk.  I have seen the Samsung DPF option, but I would really like something in the 4"-5" range.  Is there any kind of self contained display like the Samsung DPF but in the size I am wanting?

There's the 4.3-inch LCDInfo USBD480 display, but it's a bare device, so you have to get a frame for it. But, it may worth contacting its developer, Henri Skippari, maybe he can get a frame and stand for the device and supply you with a complete solution:

Option #2 may be a DisplayLink capable USB connected external LCD, although most of those would be 7-inch or larger.

Option #3 may be using a mobile device with Logitech Arx Control or RemoteSensor. Even the very first iPad would work great with RemoteSensor, so if you've got an old tablet lost & forgotten in one of your drawers, it may worth trying it out ;)

Hello, sorry to revive this old post but I noticed you said an old iPad would work great with remote sensor. I have spent the last week trying to get my sensor panel to show on my iPad and I just can’t get it to work.

I’ve put the correct resolution from the Aida splash screen into the settings for remote sensor but the splash screen remains.

I have been able to get the lcd panel working through Logitech Arx on iPad but that won’t let me use my sensor panel layout.

I keep seeing post of people showing their sensor panel showing on their iPad but can’t find any instructions on how to do it.

any help would be greatly appreciated.

once I get this working I will purchase Aida extreme as I’m just using the trial version at the moment.

thanks 

Pete.
