    Klaus,

    It is a matter of quantity

    Say your your target is 1k per year for the next 3 years.

    So you would need 3k LCDs.
    Why don't you just get them now at far less than $1 each (@ a quantity of 3k) and put them on the shelf?

    I agree, there is not much of a chance of the same kind of display being available in three (or five) years time, but who cares, Wouldn't you have re-designed your product anyway in 2010?

    And having a GLCD makes your product look much better than the competition (if there is any)

    Attached if an image of one of my projects built around my "favourite" $0.75 Cellphone LCD.
