Thread: new touchpanel technology? (SAW?)

I'm working on putting my eee in my car using the origoinal touchscreen and was concerned about how the resistive touch panels have such low clarity and light transmission. So i started looking for different kinds of touchpanels and came across this:

I looked around to see how much they cost and it looks like the only way to purchase them is in bulk (15 minium at $69) at this site:

i just logged on as guest. I don't know if this is news or not, but i thought i would share. It seem like a saw touchscreen would be a step up from the regular resistive technology.
