I think Windows Media Center is the best way to experience touch in Windows 7, the big buttons are ideal. In the beta build of Windows 7 Microsoft have enabled the touch with in Media Center and it works very well. This video shows if off much better than I can explain it.

With out a softsled solution/play to feature in MediaCenter, I dont see the value in making the guide easier to navigate through using a HP Touch smart. Its cool but serves little purpose in the real world
I use my TouchSmart as a server for my Xbox so I don’t want much TV on it but I do use it for looking at the guide so it will be good for me.
Some have the touchsmart as there only device and don’t use TV so it should work for them
I can’t thank you enough for this site and everything you do for the MediaCenter Community. Thank you for sharing all the CES information.
I’m very excited about Windows 7 and see the potential and many uses for HP touchsmart. I would love to have one in our kitchen. I just had to scratch my head when he stated “touch makes most sense using the guide”. Without a shared EPG, his demo only leaves me feeling like wow…. These guys really don’t get it. If it was possible to share EPG’s across multiple computers, then I couldn’t agree with his statement. however this isn’t possible using Microsoft MediaCenter.
I know what you mean about sharing the guide, that would be very cool.
