I have a project coming up that will require me to play around with an ARM-type board as well as

ILI9325 LCD Module, 2.8" 320x240
http://www.ladyada.net/products/tfttouchbreakout/ - 2.8" 320x240 LCD for $40
http://www.gravitech.us/2tftcolcd240.html - Almost the same 2.8" module and breakout for $50
Seems to require a pair of 74LS245 (tri-state octal buffer) chips for interfacing. This datasheet more or less confirms that. Amusingly, you can grab these LCDs for $10-$15 on eBay, albeit with slow (free) shipping from China.

3.5" LCD Module, 320x240
http://mbed.org/users/dreschpe/notebook/qvga-tft-with-hx8347d-controller/ - Also has a built-in touchscreen. Seems to be $31 plus some unknown amount of shipping.

More coming soon.
Edit: I just bought two of the ILI9325 boards; I think my next purchase should be this, <$17 for LCD + breakout + touchscreen.

Item location: Shenzhen, Guangdong, China

Niiiiice.

I'd love to go to Shenzhen and just wander around (choking on fumes) for a while..

Now to wonder what you'll be doing with a beefy-ish processor and display. Real-time DSP?

You and me both. Every once in a while I see a video tour on Hackaday or somewhere and wish I could go to one of those insane electronics markets and just buy all the things.
