a.. TOUCH SCREEN...HELLO...TOUCH SCREEN!!!!


No way do I want a touch screen!
Who wants to wear holes in an LCD screen?
Replacement costs would be prohibitive.


Huh? They have been putting Touch Screens on auto GPS's for years. I
haven't heard of any data that says they break down or are a weak link.


Any touch screen that is used for any length of time will have the touch
membrane worn through. The combination of dirt, pressure and contant
touching of the most often used screen position will lead to failure.
