Default Does anyone play with a touchscreen?

I am quite interested in this as I am becoming bored with my 2001 fps. If you play with touch-screen, can you tell a little bit about it? maybe the pros and cons of it? Thanks in advance.

yeah like a tablet PC maybe. Seems like it would be pretty cool.

Well, if you think about it, I'd love to hear how it works.

I'd be willing to try this if I could find a [censored] touchscreen anywhere.

As posted before me, your arms will get tired from using this.
I tried using voice control, but that isn't reliable enough. At least using the free tools available - perhaps Dragon or whatever can do it.
I settled on using my GamePad controller with AutoHotKey scripts to control the mouse movement.
I can now lounge back, and use one of my 8 buttons to control the play:

I have one button for switching windows (I have auto-popup disabled in the client);
One each for fold, check/call or bet/raise;
One each for nh, lol and tyvm.

Your arms wont get tired.
I'm using a wacom tablet as a mouse. It's the A4 size which is pretty big. So I move my hand as mucch as when you use a touch screen.

Try it out, it's quite funny when you use it for the first time. When you're bored try your left hand. That's even funnier.

I don't play with a touchscreen, but I do know where to get one. Elotouch is one of the largest manufacturers. Below is their link.

If you already have a nice large display, you can purchase just the touch sensor and integrate it into your monitor yourself. It isn't that difficult.
