Has anyone got any experience with touch screen LCD displays? If so what are
the cheapest sources and the easiest way to hook them to a PIC. I would
assume they have a bi-directional serial input/output.
Once I used one 1/4 VGA with matrix touch screen.
It was just a 7x11 matrix so you can use it just like
a 7x11 keypad. They are made by Nan Ya but you can
find them in USA at http://www.hantronix.com

I've used Total Controls touchscreens, you can configure them for RS232.,
RS422, etc. A bit pricey, the smallest one is a 5" monochrome, costs around
$1100.00

oh...forgot to add, the fact it is rated NEMA4, and is used in
a nasty industrial enviroment (mines). SO, I have no problem
paying that much for a product that will last
I would like to know that also,
I am going to build something that goes in my car that will have an LCD
screen
and a keypad, but if I could use the LCD itself instead of a keypad for user
input
that would simplify things dramaticly for me, considering that i have
limmited
dash space. all I need is a screen that can be divided into a 4x4
grid....each
grid space sould have a button drawn it it on the screen, and if your
finger
enters that grid area then the pic thinks you have pushed the button...
maybee
there is a simpler way to do this than with a touch screen...maybee IR
leds and detectors or something.
anyway if anyone finds a source of them let me know please,
thanks,
Ryan

ok ,
I have noticed that all my messages get screwed up,
all the lines wrap around funny when i recive them again.
It is beacause my resolution is at 1600x1200, I try to type
only half way across the screen but it is still to long.
how can I set my mail program up so that it wont do this?
I am useing outlook express.
any ideas?

In Outlook Express, Tools->options->Send
in Mail Sending Format and News Sending Format, choose Plain
Text. In their settings, change the wrap to 60 characters or
65 characters.
Hope this may help.

Find a hobby shop in your area. If they have one, or can
get you in touch with someone, take a look at a JR PCM-10
radio. Mine is an older model, but the touch LCD is nice.
Also look at the Optrex site/catalog, they have an option for
specifying touch, although I haven't seen any pricing etc for
them.
