I'm trying to find a replacement LCD for my laptop (a Fujitsu P7010). I have looked around, but I cant find any screens less then $500 bucks, and everyone who Ive called who advertises it for less is out of stock. I heard a rumor that the Sony TR1 LCD is the same/similar enough of a screen that it works in the P7010. Anyone know if this is true? Anyone have a Sony TR1 they would be willing to open up and photograph in detail so that I can compare serial numbers? I can get a TR1 screen for a lot less, but all the pictures I have found so far aren't good enough for me to be able to tell.

Any ideas?

Thats what I figured too mpilchfamily, but both use a LCD manufactured by Sharp. The one from the fujitsu p7010 is Sharp model# LQ106K1LA01A where as the Sony TR1 uses Sharp model# LQ106K1LA01B. Are they just different revisions or is there actually a hardware difference?

They look like they use exactly the same controller, and hence, should be interchangeable. Anyone know for sure?

oh, and ive looked for LCDs on ebay, craigslist, google, etc.

im having the same problem i dropped my Fujitsu P7010 broke the screen i found one place that sold the exact screen we both need for 455$ but thats a whole lotta money. i joined bexause of your post and hope someone will take a close up picture of the connection from the monitor you spoke of above if its the same thats enough evidence for me to buy.... providing somewhere sells it cheaper

(I'm on a college budget)
