As of January 25th 2012, Gumstix has phased out the·4.3" LG LCD touch screen., replacing it with the Samsung 4.3" LCD touch screen

 

These two LCD touch screens are compatible and both work with the 4.3" LCD-ready expansion boards of the Overo series, such as Chestnut43 and Palo43.

There is a pin (35) that differs in the pinout description: a 3.3V connection required on the discontinued LG product ; however, on the Samsung screen, the signal is ignored.

Note: LCD technology is evolving rapidly. Product and software developers should plan their end product designs appropriately to accommodate potential change in LCD functions.
