We didn't have two touch screens handy, therefore we mirrored the extended PC screen onto an iPad using a third party app, which degraded performance visibly. In the ideal world, you have a flat device like the Microsoft Surface tablet showing the floor map, and an external touch screen acting as an extended display.

7 yearsHome3D (4289): I concur with Fotoguy, even though i’m contradicting my own post from three months ago. Strong housing market = agents who see little need to invest in marketing. MP expansion is captive to the same forces as Cupix, Geo and all similar systems - Will the public demand it.(?) That’s the issue. The public now demands that listings have photos, so no agent dares to suggest listing a home without them. Any agent who proposed “no photos”...

I agree every opportunity, good or bad, is a learning opportunity and what we do with that is up to us. I think there really is some value in the information you are able to provide, figuring out the "how" is always the tough part :) jason
