Whereas conventional touchscreens enable two-finger dragging, scrolling and pinching,   LG's 23-inch Touch 10 monitor allows all ten fingers to be used simultaneously. The   Touch 10 monitor is an excellent choice for those looking to enjoy an enhanced touch   computing experience without having to upgrade their entire PC.     \"This is a compelling new product that re-imagines the touch experience and shows that   LG is an industry leader in developing the next generation of touch monitor products,\"   said J.J. Lee, Executive Vice President and Head of the IT Business Unit at the LG   Home Entertainment Company. \"Smartphones and tablets have already proven that   consumers are ready to fully embrace touch features. Our 10-point touchscreen takes it   one step further by exponentially expanding the range of interactive possibilities. We   believe this technology will excite and inspire software developers and users alike.\"   For tablet and smartphone owners, the Touch 10 monitor will feel like a huge   improvement in the intuitive user experience they're familiar with. Most touchscreens   utilize a two-finger recognition system which allows for basic manipulation of onscreen   elements. LG's Touch 10 monitor affords users the ability to use all their fingers at the   same time, meaning they can perform a number of new actions, such as dragging and   rotating multiple items simultaneously. The highly responsive touch screen also enables the user to take advantage of Windows 8 features, including the on-screen keyboard. The Touch 10 monitor also supports a capacitive stylus (purchased separately) should the user prefer a pen-like interface.        It's great to see LG bringing touch to computing in innovative new ways,\" said John   Case, Vice President WW OEM Marketing, Microsoft Corporation. \"Pairing LG's   Touch 10 monitor with a desktop or non-touch laptop will help create amazing   Windows 8 touch experiences for customers.\"   The impressive 23-inch monitor is great for musical applications featuring virtual   pianos, synthesizers and string instruments. A bigger display is also makes watching   movies, playing games and children's educational programs much more enjoyable. A   range of touch-friendly apps is available from the Windows Store. Moreover, from a   consumer standpoint, the monitor's setup is refreshingly hassle-free; full touch   functionality is available as soon as the monitor is connected, and no extra software is   required.     To ensure optimal picture quality, the monitor utilizes an advanced In-Plane Switching   (IPS) panel. IPS displays have inherent advantages over conventional Twisted Nematic   (TN) displays in terms of both color and clarity. The range of colors displayed is both   vibrant and naturalistic, with good contrast and overall consistency. IPS technology also   provides a more comfortable viewing experience for the user, reducing eye strain and   thereby allowing extended periods of use.   The Touch 10 monitor will be available in Korea next month followed by markets in   Europe and elsewhere."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
