LCD for Xbox, reason for existing not included

joytechxboxscreen_w.jpg

There's not much about the foot wide, 8-pound Xbox 360 that lends itself to portability, but that didn't stop Korean company Joytech from making this LCD screen for it. This handy 9.2-inch high-def portable monitor for the Xbox 360 turns it into an all-in-one gaming machine, no TV required. The screen is actually high-definition, so you can play Oblivion in all its high-resolution glory without dropping $3,000 on a new plasma display. Of course, how much of a difference HD is going to make on a 9.2-inch screen is certainly debatable, but I suppose it can't hurt. It also has speakers that can pump out SRS 3-D surround sound, apparently, although how "surround" those speakers will be is also questionable. Get a power adapter and you can bring it in the car to create the heaviest and most awkward portable gaming device ever. Luckily, the price isn't too bad for what it is: available for import for $180 from Lik-Sang.
