if your display happens to be running a 40-pin flex cable with the right
pinout. If so, you can probably also drive it natively using DPI with
Adafruit's
TFT friend <https://www.adafruit.com/products/1932>.

I had a similar project in mind myself because I've got access to a stock
of nice 7" LCDs with resistive touchscreens through work, but, sadly, the
flex cable is 50-pin and the pinout's not "right", so I've got a longer
road ahead of me.
