Come on,... touch it. You know you want too.

How to make your TV a touchscreen

Gamers will be banging on the screen anyway. Yes. Most gamers will bang anything for 75 bucks. Lol

UC logic makes digitizers, for both touch and stylus varieties. very high quality stuff. as for making a huge TV digitizer, it would be a way to have your own horizontal smart table.

Heh. Nice. The queen will be so happy. The UK people still pay for each tv they have in the house?

I support touch screens for Eve.


It will add another layer to my satisfaction to know that people are punching their monitors in addition to throwing their keyboards when I **** them off.


Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

imo, touch is not a good interface for EVE. I've tried EVE on a Cintiq--the display tablet from Wacom--and due to the lack of tactile feedback of buttons or mouseclicks, combined with the client's standard delay between module activation and visual feedback, I found myself single-clicking or double-clicking when I meant to do the opposite. There were also erroneous clicks from proximity. I stopped the experiment after 30 seconds or so; far too inconsistent, unreliable. unsuitable even for PVE--missions or mining.

if eve is touch screen capable it will give new meaning to the meme " please show on the pod where they touch you"
