There is a new touchscreen monitor with multiple pages of items to manipulate, such as radios, autopilot and many other functions. I am just curious if anyone has purchased this yet and if so, what's your opinion? To me, it's a bit pricey, but if is as functional as touchbuddy and has a built in GPS for your car, then perhaps not a bad device. Just ultimately sitting on the virtual fence awaiting reviews.

The link is: http://www.simtouch.eu/index.htm


Thanks,
Matt

I posted the same thing awhile back and didn't get a lot of response either. I think most people are happy with the setup as is.

Have been playing with the idea of Touchbuddy and an appropriate Touchscreen monitor, however, the monitors are as much as Simtouch, though arguably a bit larger than 5 inches. So, am really hoping someone has tried the device. I am also hesitant to buy when it's a new name and they are not being retailed through another distributor, for warranty sakes and such. Anyway, continuing to monitor.......

Here an additional incentive to help boost their sales. Bottom line is buy 5 and get a 6th one free or divide the cost of one by six and it comes out to about an 18% discount for each purchaser. I don't personally belong to any sort of club or know more than a handful of friends interested but if anyone's looking for a sixth purchaser, just PM me. Here's the new link:
