Hi, is there some sort of database of all existing LCD screens being manufactured where I can search for a screen based on size requirements?

Yes and No.
Many LCDs are only available in large quantities.
The question is what LCDs can I get one at a time.

Forgot to mention that I'm after TFT or other colour displays and not touchscreen.

well you can start with 16x2 Hitachi displays... they teach a lot before going into more complex ones..

Been a while since I posted this, but still after some varying sized LCD screens, anyone else have any sites where I can find some? I'm googling to no avail.

What country are you in? How many displays do you want today? How many do you want 6 months / 1 year from now? What size?

I've purchased from Digikey, alibaba, and display future at various quantities for 1 offs as well as for production.

I'm in Australia but I don't mind shipment.

In terms of numbers, very limited run, so in total probably 10 screens of each type, I've got 6 different sizes required. Initially just one of each kind, so 6.

Thanks, will check out Digikey and Display Future...

have gone through e-bay, so I assume alibaba will be similar, but I'll check.
