Dell multi touch panel for Windows 7

monitor-dell-sx2210t-overview1[1]

Oooh, I may need a new monitor to go with my new Sony Vaio. Check out this new Dell SX2210T 21.5" widescreen Multi-Touch panel. Multi-touch you say? Yup…when using Windows 7 Home Premium and above you get the multi-touch capability. I didn’t even know this was something you could do via a separate panel but it makes a huge amount of sense and for me, I personally prefer the idea of a big screen with touch capability rather than having touch on a small screen laptop like mine.

So what do you get?

  • Full HD (1920 x 1080) experience with 16:9 widescreen display
  • Optimal brightness (220cd/m2) and 50,000:1 (max.) dynamic contrast ratio
  • Integrated 2MP webcam with dual microphones for video chats

$469 in the US but I don’t think it’d fit in my carry on luggage. I assumed it’d be a US only thing for now but no….it’s there on the UK site for £319 with free shipping. sooooooooooooooooooooooo tempting

    I'd like to see soem ethnographics around multi-touch screens for laptops and desktops...I've got a suspicion most users will just get plain tired! Still, love to track any research on usage :)

    Looks good Steve and probably the start of a wave of new devices to make our PC user experience even better. Will have to invest in one to have a play, all in the name of research of course.
