    Just buy and see for yourself, either description is wrong or model number.
    70$, thats nothing :D
    Even if its glossy cant you put on some decent screen protector and still keep decent viewing angles?

    It doesn't say anything about touch and digitizer....

    PS: I've seen this kind of offers before ...120 and glossy.

    Hm yeah, I was thinking of getting and then returning it if its not matte. If possible. :)

    Also yeah, I am not sure how much skill is required to take apart digitizer and the touch surface (if only that was required to make it go into X200?). Are there any tips/guides on doing that? I went through the entire AFFS thread quite a while ago, but I don't remember anything like that. I just remember the moral of the story was - get it without digitizer. :)

    100% it is not that panel. I've dealt with bliss computers in the past. They listed an uncommon panel in stock. I called to verify they had that exact panel - they said yes. I ordered it and received a USED panel that was not even the one I ordered! :mad:

    Return process went OK. When I talked to the CSR rep - which is one lady who returned my phone call 2 days later - she said they sell COMPATIBLE panels, not the original. They trick you because each product page is filled with tons of text that makes you think it is the actual panel for sale, but then at the very bottom in smaller print it says you may receive a compatible panel. Very shady and as a result I am never dealing with Bliss Computers again!
