Dan,
I know he was using touch screens last year when I visited him.

I have been looking for a tablet style device that has a built in barcode reader. I have had a hard time finding one and when I do the price is outrageous. That would be the best of both worlds and make it less error prone.

Just so you know, a good friend of mine and lurker here, Bob Thompson, built an amazing application for his company's shop floor. Every form is loaded with big buttons to work with touch screen units. Everything is wireless, and running on a compiled app. For the times that you need someone to "type" in something, you just locate buttons for each letter and number in a group box and a variable edit field that displays what they have typed so far. When you have it designed once, then you can easily copy and paste to other forms.

Our goal is to either go with a Runtime or Compiled application using 9.1. We want to be able to have multiple touch screens out in the shop so we can get to real time entry out there. This would be on a wireless network.
