This means that other vendors could use this screen, mating it with the Epson controller (say).

So far the DR800SG's screen looks stunningly white in videos. So there may be some secret sauce in the new Delta controller it is using (or it may be that iRex binned their screens to get good ones for the demo devices).
And now we also have the 7" screen used in the 900. And I would love the screen used in the 900 to replace 6" screens as that would be a good size increase without being too big.
