Too bad they don't deliver to the USA.

It is a crapshoot, but there is a seller called "BW Group" who are sporting the same logo as the BW corp for USA.
Buy at your risk :)

@Helder: i had the problem that most of the links from the wiki to screen sellers, would'nt ship to The Netherlands :?
Glad i found one that did (thanks to this forum!!!)

Yesterday some more parts arrived :D

A nice package from Dominator:

- Screen surround (modded with raspberry pi)
- Busson PCB with drill template
- Original GB buttons
- Silicone conductors for the GB buttons
- Cartridge labels

And some needed wires :P

Ok, so just now the USB hub arrived, and also a mini Glue Gun :)
I only had a big one, so i thought i'd order a mini one to be able to get in small areas better :)

still waiting on the new shell, volume wheel and small tactile switches :)

also ordered a 3.7v lipo volt meter with 4 leds on int.
Will wire a tactile switch between it and the battery, so i can push that button to see the status of the battery :)
