Hi Dan,

I use a 6.5" LCD and touchscreen in my kitchen for an MP3 Player etc,
and
can confirm that unless the buttons are a reasonable size or the
interface
has been designed for a small screen it is quite tedious to work with a
touch screen if you want to use the standard Windows interface. You can
use
a stylus but unless the screen is on your lap or in your hand it is
quite
difficult to be accurate.

Trying to use the likes of Winamp on such a small screen is very hard.
There
is a software package called Jukebox for Winamp but it is not really easy
to
use either. This is something I would like to address myself with Winamp
but
just never seem to have the time these days.!!

Regards
Dave...
