Here we have an 60% tax over any electronic product. For example: at ebay, right now there´s a bcr2000 for $129 new. The shipping of that will be sometyhing around $60 (or more). The sum is: $129 + 60 = $189 * 1.6 = $302.4.

Yes, yes, yes the 60% tax is made INCLUDING the shipping.

Yes, yes, yes, I want to kill all the politicians, but the waiting line for the people who want to do that has too many people also :-)

Here I use an 3rd 15 inch monitor (I use and usb-to vga adapter). The glass with the encoders is attached directly at the monitor. I am planning to build an aluminum or wooden case with the glass inside. That will protect the glass and make things more robust; And it wil become easy to attach it to a lcd monitor. It would work exactly as an overlay. The "bottom" of the encoders stays almost touching the lcd monitor, so that the glass "floats" over the lcd screen at a (more or less) 1 centimeter distance.

Another suggestion is that you may want to make this available to folks over at Groupdiy.com and other forums too. Then you may be able to increase the quantities substantially, and thus lower the prices a little bit, and of course make a lot more money for all your hard work.

thanks,
Brad
Brad, that´s a very good idea.

However, I will wait to see what is the response from the other guys.
