I just installed a touch panel on my latptop. It works beautifully! I hate the touchpad so much, and this is enormously better. And installation wasn't 100% trouble-free, but it was still quite easy to do overall; the problems I had were related to my computer instead of this new part.
I think it's going to drop my battery life by about 5%, which is worth the trade-off. And the module that runs it does get a bit warm, so there's a new hotspot in the thing (I tucked it down in the lower-left corner).
Still, I'd recommend considering it for any laptop for which they make one. It's good stuff.
