>>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.

Well I actually used dropdown boxes (combobox where you can't type into the text area) and those don't require you to hit the arrow, just the control in general will do :)
