Thanks. That's expensive as it's only a touch overlay and no screen or
controller.

I'll probably get the ebay one I mentioned as it's a complete PCB
solution. No pesky ribbon tails or controllers to add. The SD card
holder seems to be simply a separate connector with the usual signals
brought direct to the PCB main connector.

Actually the capacitive overlay on iPhone is ONLY good for finger
touch (won't work with gloves), It's tech that was ignored for years
because the GUIs needed stylus and aim was handwriting.
Even to capture drawing or a signature (like the Courier companies
use) needs the resistive touch screen. The capacitive tech is very low
resolution.

What would be nice is to have both :-) A camera + resistive will do it.
