Wireless and Waterproof Remote PC screen
 
Every once in awhile something interesting shows up in my inbox buried
under all of the other advertisements. Yesterday I received this one:

http://tinyurl.com/yrl8bb

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.

I can dump on you some more if that's what you want.

Follow Reggie's example. Offer nothing of value, but insult everyone
else and what they've done, do, own, et cetera.

I agree it's pricey, but the practical apps would include chart-reading and
general nav issues?

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of
battle.
