Ages ago, I think it was Anthony Anson asked here about hooking up a Pi to a small screen.
I've just come across this - http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/desktops/25-fun-things-to-do-with-a-raspberry-pi-5... (article number 22) which might help.
Can I make a public thank you to Nev Young and all the other people that helped me yesterday to recover the SD cards for my Pi.
One problem, identified by Nev, was that the cards aren't 8 gigs, they're 4. That's brain fade on my part! Second is that even though they boot fine on the Pi, my machine still won't see them. That's despite using a brand new USB 2 device reader.
Finally, once I had the Pi up and running here, the keyboard wouldn't work on it. So that can go back to the shop in Wymondham where I bought it. I had to use an old Cherry keyboard which weighs a ton but works on the Pi.
Lessons learned all round but thanks once again to Nev and the other people yesterday.

What would be nice is if they finally enable the DSI port, but AFAIK that will require a new binary blob firmware file which has yet to be produced.
Then it would be possible to attach some salvage screens from smartphones or screens salvaged from digital photo frames etc.
