Nothing for sale yet, but this would solve the glare problems.

but this lcd uses a special light pen which means you can't just use your finger.

This is the touchscreen we need..no overlay or film to worry about. And it won't interfere with screen brightness.

Or capacitive. It's solid glass versus plastic membrane. There are also some available for direct sunlight applications.
