Touchscreen Media Center

Inteset has designed a 17-inch widescreen touchscreen that is designed to let you run all of Windows Media Center with just your fingers. The Julia All-in-One Touch Extender comes with a built-in 80 gigabyte hard drive, CD/DVD drive and TV/FM tuners, and, although it is designed more to run off a seperate Inteset MCE PC running as a media server, it will function as a standalone MCE PC. The HD is said to be for "temporary storage", which might mean it isn't really supposed to be a DVR, just for pausing Live TV. Inteset has modded MCE to have an onscreen keyboard/remote control when necessary, since MCE's controls rely a lot on the remote. The touch interface looks excellent, and they should consider adapting it for UMPCs as well. All in all, I'm very impressed. Check out Endadget) Add to Del.icio.us | Digg | Yahoo!
