    Sell the sister on Ebay to cover the cost. It's only fair.

    Yes, the manufacturer is Toshiba Matsu****a. The TX screens should work with the TZ.

    Part numbers are

    LTD111EXCA
    LTD111EXCX
    LTD111EXCY

    thats really funny cause that place is only about 20 miles from me. how do you plan on installing it though? not as simple as swaping out a hard drive.

    Man that sucks... I just thought about the tz I just ordered and if the screen were to break on it, it would just break my heart... =( at least you have an alternative to putting the tx screen on the tz~ My one question is that does the tx screens have that x-black like the tz's do? Because I was going to save some money and just buy a tx model but I opted for the newest and greatest tz, just because I've heard about its screen being so amazing.
