    Which eBay touch kit?

    I'm looking for a touch screen overlay to fix my Lilliput 619 and I've found a few on eBay for the eeePC. There's two main types, one is flexible and the other is on glass. What's the advantages for each? I know the 619 comes with a glass overlay and I have a feeling the flexible one may be loose when I mount it. Does the flexible overlay work any better than the glass type?

    Doesn't the glass type have a plastic touch surface as well? That's what came in my Lilliput.

    Jesse, i am not a expert, and could definatly be wrong, but i really think that the glass option is to support the overlay over a unprotected lcd screen-- so if you already have a glass layer on top of the screen, than you would order the standard flexible version.

    errr... it's 4 wire resistive. The plastic touch surface is glued to the glass around the edge. I've never seen any glass touch screens (capacitive) like the ones on the iphone on eBay or anywhere else...
