Touchscreen only (no pc needed)

Hello,

I'm in the middle of rebuilding my house and came up with the idea to install a (capacitive) touch-screen in the wall. It doesn't need a pc, as I'm thinking of building a small low-powered linux system to run a webserver, which will be the frontend I'm going to use.

Does anyone have pointers to touch-screens only, or a price indication?

is what you want if you go for gold (so i am told) but ofcourse it comes with a price tag, also check out the rest of the site.. lots of things.

dont forget that if you want to go to a resolution of 1024, it only start at 15 inch, so if you go for less inches, make sure they have a nice resolution. Meaning, if you go for example with a 14 inch, which only has 800x600.. you will notice the pixels (you can almost count them by eye sight)

Take for example the mimo screen, its 7 inch, but still has 800x480 (see review http://www.terracode.com/MIMO_UM740_Rev ... ew_P1.html)

which makes that 7 inch screen really crystal clear.. i have not seen "good" screens like for instance 12 inch with 1024 resolution (or 10 inch with 800x600) maybe they are, but not capcative..

Heee Erik I know this screen.

It's a nice screen only the price..750 euro including TAX
for that price you can buy two shuttle all in one PC's including nice screen. but not a capacitive screen..

but my choice will also be the screen from A1...max prics 350 euro.
