Looks very interesting. Can you post some close-up pictures around the modded area so we can see what you did?

Assume you installed a touch screen ?
Offline
No i havn't installed a touch yet. and i will try take some new pics tomorrow with more light.
i have cut the screen cover from connectors, and turn it around, and make a hole in the back at the screen cover for the wire.
and also i cut the metal plate under the keyboard that i removed. right now the screen is taped together with the rest. hehe

AFAIK you're the first to actually do this, so taping together is acceptable for trail blazers ![]()

i was planning to do this. but i never thought of cutting it and flipping it on the way you did. GREAT idea!!!! you rule polyarmid.

I must say, this EEEPC reminds me of Thinkpads, and to me, that's pretty cool.

That's a great start to a great mod. From the pics & description you gave I would think further modding could reduce the overall thickness quite noticably, mainly by removing the back plastic of the screen and the 'wrist rest' plastic which holds the keyboard & touchpad.

looks good, way better than bunch of people who only talks about "is it possible to..." and not actually do it. Good job.

Amazing work. I'd love to have a touch screen tablet style EEE for an idea I had earlier this week. I want to wall mount one in my bedroom to act as a calender/schedular, media player, digital photo frame, weather forecaster, remote pc monitor and whatever else I can think of.

is the vga connector the original connected that came with the asus eee???? it looks longer.
Offline
No its the original. Thx, sound like a good idea. i think of putting it in my car with gps.
Offline
i was thinking about doing this but also putting a connector on the outside, and on the intermal keaybord so that i could still attact the keybord for typeing if i need it instead of takeing along a full size keaybord

I like that Idea... you'd only Need the 2G surf and some extra memory (Y HALO THAR MR. SDHC) to install th apps, and hey, you've got it. Have a photo screensever on and it becomes a piece of art! Affixing it to the wall might be difficult. It may weigh less than a kilo, but thats stiill quite an amount hanging on your wall by some unknown means...

damn.. now i want to buy an extra eee just for this mod...
install an bt adapter, or equal and add an small wireless keyboard and u have the possiblity to actually type easier..
and keep it foldable so u can flip half open so it can stand...
du er konge..

I have an old omnibook sans case mounted on the bathroom wall. Sometimes i plug it in and put in a wireless card before partys to amuse people.
