TT,
For that price, I can buy regular flat screen every year for the next 5-7 years. But, if $$$ is not an object, no questions this is the way to go. The only other thing to be aware is that it's twice heavier that regular flat panels.

One thing you have to realize is that a true sunlight readable LCD is not like the $200 Wal-Mart TV. Take your laptop or LCD TV outside and tell me how well you can see it...

I have a 15 inch daylight viewable monitor for my helm station that is rated for 800-1000 nits brightness. It serves multiple purposes - GPS through a laptop/Garmin, SAT TV, DVD, computer and a salon CC TV. I purchased this monitor a couple of years ago from a company called Solarism for $250.00. They have since gone out of business. I wish I had bought a couple more.
The unit is plenty bright although I'm always in the shade when I view it. At night, it's actually too bright, even at the lowest setting.
If you look at specs for regular monitors, most of them have a brightness output of about 350 nits which is just not bright enough for daylight or shade. Monitors with 800 nits start at around $1000.
