I have used the Mac-N-Touch screen, and am very fond of it.  It hooks into
the ADB network, so will work with any application on the Mac, because the
Mac sees it as a normal mouse.  You can set the screen to either treat 
touching the screen at a point as "move the cursor to here and press the
button", or the screen can be set to move the cursor to where you touch
the screen, and follow your finger, and send a button push when you lift
your finger.  The last mode does the button if you quickly lift your 
finger and then put it back down.

The second mode if best for experienced Mac users, but the first mode
is great for making friendly user interfaces.
