Just curious. Anyone know how it works? I know of several ways they make touch screens but i'm wondering which technology the P800's uses?
To me it seems quite precise compared to a real TOUCH screen that uses pressure to position the cursor. |

You think?
Have you noticed the grid if you look at the screen from the side? There are also some horisontal lines..
Hmm.. Perhaps that's how a touch sensitive screen is built..

It's a resistive touch screen. There's a grid of transparent conductors that touch when you press on the screen. The top layer actually deflects, you can see this under the right lighting conditions.
Here's a tutorial: http://www.touch-screens.com/touchscreens/resistive-touchscreens.html |
