I really hope the screen company is Pixel Qi. Here is their prediction for a touchscreen price:

"INTEGRATED TOUCHSCREENS

Touch should just be an incremental cost increase to the screen and embedded directly into it. Pixel Qi is working on low-cost approachs to integrated touch with a target of a $5 -$10 pricetag." (http://pixelqi.com/products)

They aren't selling the touchscreen yet, only the original OLPC XO screen.

I realize that, but hopefully TC is in talks with PQ about trying out prototypes, etc...
