Can you use a gps touch screen for a monitor?
I have been looking for a monitor wich i can hold in my hands comfortably and just sit back and relax with it doing my computer work on it via touch screen. Is it possible since the gps has usb to control my pc wich it? and view my desktop? If not does anyone know of a monitor that would work. Im not looking for a mini computer. Im looking for just the monitor wich is touchscreen so i can do simple work on it without being at my computer.

No, GPS does not have the accuracy to help support touch screen control on a regular sized computer screen.
