is there any transparent LCD?

I am looking for a transparent LCD, 320x240 pixel 1-bit color. Something like those used in OverHead projecting units.

Benta:
All LCDs are transparent. The deciding factor is the polarizer and reflector/translucent layer, which can be optimized for the application. 1-bit color is monochrome to me.

But they have the LCD-driver and the backlight on the back of the glass, and I do not need to have it on the back. I need something that can be used as an overhead projector. Look at the pics.

NiHaoMike:
If you're only looking to get a few, it would be easier to just get a normal backlit LCD and remove the actual panel from the backlight.

DaJMasta:
To get a decent looking projector, you're probably going to need some optics.  While taking the LCD panel apart (remove backlight and diffuser layers, basically) will get you something you can project through, it could be tricky to make it look sharp.  Low power projectors are pretty inexpensive these days, can you get your project to output to a VGA port or similar and then just use a commercial projector?
