We recently saw an Eee PC that was modded to add touchscreen functionality, however we had a little disappointment about the lack of details. Now those details have been posted in a nice video form.
Basically you will need to purchase a touchscreen and USB controller, it was also mentioned that while there are many options available, a kit was suggested that way you would be able to get both parts together. In this installation the USB controller was mounted in place of the left speaker, but with some work there are other places and options for mounting.
Overall you will have to know how to open the Eee, solder and also know which cable is which. Pretty much goes without saying that this is not an easy mod to complete, it would however add a lot more functionality to your Eee.
The video is great, if not for someone looking to complete this mod, it also shows some nice shots of a disassembled Eee, for those that are simply curious about the insides. The overall video is a little over 16 minutes but well worth the time.
