touchscreen+tv

Hello, I have an interesting question to which I could not find any answers. I would like to install in my kitchen a touch-screen device acting as TV+radio, and additionally as internet browser.

For space reasons, I would like to ideally mount it within a cupboard wall, meaning that it should be real thin (4-5 cm at most).

Can all of that be done with a touchscreen tablet PC? I have a hard time finding anything that does the job.

I should add that money is not really an issue: if I find something that is really good, I will pay up to 2.5K for it!

I would be extremely grateful for any advice!

Does the kitchen device have to be the one selecting the TV content? I just saw on jkontherun mention of a freeware app called Orb, which allows one machine to pipe content to another internet-enabled device.

If you want both Tablet PC Edition 2005 and touchscreen, your choices are limited. They are so limited, I don't even know what they are, with the exception of UltraMobile PCs and the 8" Fujita LifeBook P1510d. I don't think they are thin, either, but I really must defer to the more knowledgeable about that.

Re: touchscreen+tv

aag,

What a coincidence, I am looking to do the same thing. Have you received any good responses or insight from anyone? My idea is to mount a tablet PC under the cabinet and be able to fold and rotate the screen for viewing. Thanks for any help you can provide!
