Cool, can we get a replacement part# for the screen, and can it be swapped into the original steam decks?
Valve employees have confirmed that the OLED display is incompatible with the LCD Deck's Mobo. So you can't upgrade just the screen.
@jayandp @Pistcow and this is OK, normal hardware iteration. Me with the old Deck is still satisfied, can play the same way the same things with same ergonomics. For new players - yes, the upgrade seems much better for the same price (no like Nintendo did, by the way).
