HP Compaq L2105tm


$299.00 Released October, 2009

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Full 1080p resolution. Optical sensors pick up your finger movements meaning you don't have to fully touch your display's surface to register input. Full multitouch - allows the display to register multiple inputs at once, allowing enhanced software to utilize full hand gestures instead of simple single pointer input.

The Cons:Optical sensors instead of true capacitive / resistive touch technology mean accidental points can be registered as input. Not logical to use multitouch on a full upright display - not ergonomic or intuitive whatsoever compared to more established input devices. Doesn't always respond to multitouch input.

The HP Compaq L2105tm, is a touchscreen monitor that is designed to hook up to a Windows 7 computer. The new moniter is a full HD 1920 x 1080 LCD with an optical touchscreen supporting one-finger screen scrolling as well as two-finger mouse-like multitouch guestures.
