So while looking at a blog, I saw reference to a touch screen monitor. So I started to web surf for this monitor and I cam acorss another website MP3Car.com, thus I started looking around. This place has all the cool toys that I am looking for, like small touch screen monitors, designed for use in a car computer application. More interesting they have car based computers in there too, and one that I really like looks a lot like a power inverter. Then I got thinking, these little devices would make a great Media Center exteneder, or in my case something to use as a SageTV Client. I have been working on my new client, trying to decide what to get, but this might be a better alternative because they are even smaller than the Shuttle PC that I was looking at. The only problem is that most of these systems are designed to have an external power supply, and this power supply is usually a DC-DC power supply, which causes problems for building it for inside use, but I am sure that someone has a solution for that…

So back to the original reason for coming to this site, they also have small touch screen monitors. The site listed above was using one of these for a digital photo frame application… Hmmm… the uses are endless… I might have to see if Cindy will let me get one
