====================
Have just used it for 30 mins, this screen is amazing, easy to setup. The screen quality is very good. The multi-function function only works on Windows 7, not MAC OSX. Very accurate touching, like on your iPhone, response rate is very quick as well.
The screen is glossy, only LCD back-lit but looks like LED back-lit. Picture is crisp colorful.
I do recommended this screen to anyone who is looking to buy an external monitor, as it worth every penny, especially the multi-touch function is absolutely fantastic

it says use a pen for touch, can you use your finger?
also
what does this mean, USB port (for use with touch function)
The pen is for more accuracy when you do typing by onscreen keyboard I guess.
And it can be touched by finger as well. I just bought mine, will set it up later on today and will post the review
Thanks
Connect usb to your PC, and it shows up as a mouse...
If you are willing to pay postage on top, I am willing to pick on up tomorrow for you
This screen is amazing, better than the HannsG and Digimate that I have bought recently.
If I got some this, would I just remove the existing monitor and plug this into the desktop PC? Does it then do everything in the same way as I would with a mouse or is it only certain programs that are compatible? Can you also have a normal mouse plugged in, so you could use whichever you want at random? And is there some way of doing functions that you'd do on a mouse like right click, drag & drop etc that you can't do on an ipad and the likes?
Thinking of it for 6yr old son's Christmas as he loves playing touchscreen games on my iphone, plus 2yr old is good with the computer but struggles with the mouse.
Liking the idea very much if it would do what I want it to do! Thanks for any help.
You won't see much after that.

Ah, this screen works on Vista/ XP with one finger scrolling, multi touch on Windows 7 only, to do right click, youjst hold one finger on the screen, one click on the screen, the right click menu will pop up
And drag and drop is basically DRAG and DROP, very simple
Thanks to mumbojumbo has posted the youtube video, the scrolling thing is quite good
ANd yes, this has VESA mount at the back, as it has 4 holes there..lol
