I saw this video a while back and its just popped up again in the good old rss but I still think its brilliant. The EEE Pc is charming me over evermore with its ability to run xp now and this touchscreen mod which would mean not having to use the tiny little touchpad. I was also looking into an oqo umpc but the eee with the touchscreen mod is cheaper and newer than the oqo model 1. Has anyone had any experiences with the EEE Pc – is it really that usable?

Hey Mike, just got an Eee 701 4GB Surf in pink. Which one is he using in the video as it looks like the 900 version with the wider screen.
I really like my Eee, the keyboard takes some getting used to though as it is smaller. I’m just debating whether to keep the Linux OS or change to XP, already upgraded the memory from 512MB to 1GB and got myself an 8GB SD card for my docs etc. Also got the 3 dongle working fine so I’m totally mobile.
As for this mod - I’m really interested in doing it but knowing my luck I’d break it lol. Also, I’d lose the webcam from what I can tell and although I don’t use it that much I don’t see the point in losing one thing for another…
