In my previous job back in Spain, for a project We had to buy one of this touchscreen 7" screen. Apart of the prohibiting price, you had to take into account the limited resolutions and most of the time you need a PDA pen to work normally. However, our intention was to develop a software for this screen size, so buttons and alike needed to be quite big :)

I noticed the products I just mentioned are out of stock. You might alternatively try Lilliput on Ebay. I have no idea how good the monitors are or how reliable the vendors are, but they seem to be going at about $200 USD a pop w/shipping and are 7" promising both vga standalone + touchscreen. It seems to be intended for use in vehicles.

If anyone bothers to get ahold of one, let me know how it turns out.

Thanks.

        Well, two ways:

        1) using a video card with a s-video out, "display to tv" on
        that video
        card, and use the tv-in on the laptop to read/display the signal.

        2) similar to (1) but if the video card doesn't have s-video out,
        buy a scan converter for ~$80.

        As for which kind of tv-in card, I would suspect any of
        them.  I have a
        "Cinergy Hybrid T USB XS" which comes with an antenae and
        remote and
        all kinds of good things.  Used it when I was in Germany for 6
        weeks
        without a tv; just swapped in my laptop :-)
