There is something which I want for some time, a touch screen monitor tablet. I found out these are called ‘Smart Displays’ and currently two 15″ (the largest) have been made:
- The ViewSonic AirPanel. This site shows some information on how to install the thing.
- The Philips DesXcape. Here is more information about it. The price I could find is $1499.
There is just one problem, as I understand Microsoft sort of stopped the whole Smart Display venture and I don’t know if both devices can still be bought. The Philips website search page doesn’t find the DesXcage so I guess they discontinued support and selling of it, as if the whole thing was never even there… Its a shame, because these Smart Displays are really handy. You just sit on your couch, pick up a Smart Display and via touchscreen you can work on your PC, f.e. play music, word processing, etcetera.
Well, I think it is inevitable that these devices will become popular. I don’t know why the first attempt to market them didn’t work. Hope next time it will…
De Grote G says: f.e., als zijnde for example wordt niet echt gebruikt in de Engelse taal. Ik zou hiervoor de afkorting e.g. gebruiken, hetgeen van het Latijn (exempli gratia) afgeleid bijvoorbeeld betekend. Er bestaat ook zoiets als e.c., hetgeen uit het Latijn (exempli causa) ook bijvoorbeeld betekend, maar minder in zwang lijkt te zijn. Waarom dat is weet ik niet.
