ONE DAY WORKLOG THANKS~

 

I was wondering where I can get cheap touchscreen for 22"? no multi touch, just a simple one like yours...

 

where can the humble mortal find such devices?

i mean even a 19in screen is ideal for me to sit next to my 24in as a media screen

 

I was feeding google with the words: 19 touchscreen module usb

Nothing really came up actually where to buy one, but manufacturers of touchscreens.

 

ok, i guess i overdid it...how about a 19" widescreen, I already know of Earth LCD, but anything cheap-er???

 

I found this one... and it's dirt-cheap I'd say. Looks allmost like the panel used by ranlai.

This is probably the nicest one day mod ive ever seen! Nice work! I just ordered a 19" touch panel off ebay for my secondary PC monitor... couldnt resist after seeing this!

 

Thankx for the link jrs77!!! +1 rep for quickness!!!

 

Nice man!

Anybody knows how it's works? - i mean, is the frame enough for this mod to have a working screen (given a USB port)?


Anybody knows if it can be ordered in ~10 inch versions? - would be nice for HTPC!

 

10.1", here and the ebay page here...

 

Thx - new to this modding, but is it USB powered?

Guess i just HAVE to get it in my HTPC!


Edit:

Would this not be suited for a tablet pc screen? - it would make a cheap tablet if it has the functionality. Plugged in the USB port of an existing laptop. Maybe ranlai could help testing?

 

apparently so, because touchscreens don't require much power because of the way they work...

 

wait, before I buy the tempting touchpanel, is virtual village legit?

 

Seems to, but you can also get the same panel from ebay.

 

no, thats what i am talking about, will it be safe from ebay?, I have ordered stuff from ebay before, but never from this guy...

 

The ebay store is virtual village shop so i am still a little worried by it.

 

but, aren't ebay stores safer that a guy auctioning his stuff off?

 

It does seem, however, to be the panel used by threadstarter.. He should be able to tell us where he got the panel..

Slisgrinder, I would think so. Also, you are protected fully by paypal, so.. I would try it.

And ofc, he got it from his friend, but i'll change my question to: where did his friend get his hands on the panel?

 

he said, he got it from a friend...

 

The eeePC forums give good marks to:
