Every once in awhile something interesting shows up in my inbox buried
under all of the other advertisements. *Yesterday I received this one:

It purports to be a wireless, waterproof, touch sensitive screen for
remote control and display of a PC. *It looks like it might be
particularly useful for the cockpit of sailboats or on small power
boats. *Apparently it is battery operated.


Anyone have any experience with something like this?


I have no connection with the product or vendor.


Pricy for what it is. I wonder about it's viewability in sunlight. If
you need to build a sunshade for it, you might just go ahead and build a
water resistant enclosure and throw a laptop into it.Very short battery
life which is understandable. There may be a practical application, but
I can't think of any.
I spoke too soon. I just thought of something. How about reading
rec.boats while taking a shower. Kidding of course.


Well, that would be a change from your usual habit of reading rec.boats
and taking a dump.- Hide quoted text -
