    Hi,

    Can anyone recommend a 7" monitor that will work well with Udoo Quad?

    It doesn't need to be touch-screen or anything like that. Just something simple and reliable.

    Thanks,

    Jamie

    I got the official 7" from the UDOO store and it works quite fine, although resolution could be higher (most 7" tablets have many more pixels) Ubuntu is quite usable (a few times you have to alt-drag some window).

    One cool thing is that it takes power from the board, you don't need a power cord, just one cable. I glued it (just one drop) to a small cardboard piece that keeps it vertical, no borders.

    i just used a small metal stand from Amazon to hold it up, works perfect on the 7" display and is very cheap - http://amzn.to/1mUhevE

    Is this really the only choice for a small screen for the Udoo?

    123 euros with tax and delivery. Seems a bit too much. Specially for such a low resolution.

    Has nobody found anything else?
