Looks like it'll have to be me. I'll meet with my possible source of a kiosk appliance tomorrow and see what we can come up with. Ah yes, but one of us needs to do the codeing.

Again, I have a couple of options of how we can achieve this differently. 1. You can buy kits to convert an LCD to a Touch Screen (basic electronic knowledge needed) on eBay. reasonably priced and probably worth a try. 2. A College family run a local Photo Processing outlet. I have spoken to him in the past about the green "Fuji" photo kiosk's that they use. Touch screen equipped computer in a small self contained unit. They are often available 2nd hand, and this could also be an option. I'll look into both of these for us and see what we can find. And yes, I love the idea of the 2nd Competition. Even if they just design the layout, and we code the solution based on their ideas. Or get a SS Student to code the solution for us.

And where do we get it from? I was thinking that KICT could launch a second competition, judge the winner & award a for the best kiosk plan. … so how much is a touch screen likely to cost us?
