Very nice!

I have some questions:
- What are those white bars one can see on top and bottom of the screen?
It looks as if the screen is not as high as the original..
- The display of the upgraded MP looks as if it was sitting deeper (ergo
it's slimmer than the original) in the case, but I guess that's just an
optical effect due to the white bars.
- Will you provide "in action" pics of the working display the backlights in
the dark, including an original vs. upgrade shootout?
- Is the BL-material visible through/on the sides the display if inactive?

I'm very interested in this project, my OMP just kicked mud on my 2100's ego
regarding contrast.

Regards,

Oliver :)

Technical points aside, you could probably beat someone to
