M11x tablet mod!

I think i can help~

a few years ago i worked on a macbook tablet with my friends, and we used a 13in usb touch panel from a ebay seller named race-buy

he also seems to be selling a 12 inch panel~
ebay search:[ 12" 16:9 USB Panel Kit Set Touch Screen for windows 7 ]

if its fits over completly (with space to spare) just map/calibrate the panel to accormidate the .4'' difference.

how we connected the usb panel to the macbook had 3 plans (all worked)
A: the first rev. we "sacrificed" one usb port, and covered up the slot.

B:later we intergrated a mini usb hub and routed one usb port out so we could have the normal number of ports. (may not work due to space contraint)
C: eventually we got the internal wire information from some random forum, and solder the panels usb to it~

hope this helps

 

whoops, something new popped up:
Convert any Laptop Screen into a Touchscreen | Hack N Mod

this might helps too~ (comes in 11.6 in size too)

but it's more expensive :/

 

I see that everything is still here because we do not like this kid who is using kickstarter to do this?

Even for this project could be useful to use kickstarter what do you think ejohnson?

 

With that kid's last name, he didn't have much of a choice than to do something big. Wow, he has a wild intelligence and impressive ambition. I almost wanna see what he would do with $50,000, if not waste it all.

 

Hey guys,

can someone tell me the dimensions of the m11x r1/r3 motherboard? I'm thinking about buying a motherboard from ebay and built a mac mini clone around it.

Maybe someone can help me? Would be great, thank you!
