r @shanselman I dunno, for bright fast moving 80's arcade sprites on black, I wouldn't want an LCD. Also, viewing angles are problematic.

I'm kind of suspecting that iPhone v3, with 2x memory and almost 2x CPU, will end up being much faster than the Pre. Speed!

r @shanselman LCD in your mame cabinet? boooooo! Arcade monitor only!
