Wall mounting?  How about a cheap TFT (loads available for under=20
=A3100), touchscreen overlay (didn't someone find a cheap one?), and a=20
Mini-ITX board?  Actually, I've just spotted some CF-27 toughbooks on=20
ebay for under =A3200.  Bargain!  Item 5122192965 looks like what you=20
might want.

I'd still go for a PDA, even with wall mounting.  OK, so it's=20
generally a smaller screen, but they're cheap (=A3130 for a refurb 1940=20
IPAQ @ http://www.totalpda.com).  I
suspect there are models with=20
bigger screens too, but I've not really investigated.

Cheers,
Andy
