When I needed to buy a big panel with touchsceen I investigated that model. But it’s a $2,822.97 and has display only 8”. Why do not get Sahara Slate PC i412T Touch-iT Tablet PC which is $1,795.00 with display 12.1”?
Michael,
The Sahara PC’s are nice, however, it’s not an inwall touchscreen and it doesn’t run embedded XP. Two different applications.

Michael,
I appreciate your interest in our products.The embedded piece for the Sahara i412t is being produced and should be available in the next few weeks. We will be releasing it as a kit with all components available.
Danny, I agree with you in case of mounting problem. But there is a kit to mount Sahara to wall. It can be used (but it’s difficult a bit to chose a right one using just a pictures and description from the web site). Regarding to embedded Windows vs XP. I’m not a Windows guru (I prefer Linux). Could you tell me, please, what is the difference between them in your case? Cost of licence or something different?
Ken, this is a good news! I’ll check your site for updates.
