>Why say goodbye to comboboxes? I developed a POS - that's point of sale and not piece of $hi+, but one could argue the latter :) touchscreen application. It was designed for a 1024x768 resolution and I simply bumped up the controls size for fat fingers. It worked fine.

I keep comboboxes because there are cases where data entry would make no sense by touching the screen. But for 100% touchscreen use I didn't like comboboxes. Arrow is too small for my needs.
