And could be removed and used as a plug and play screen for consoles, laptops, phones etc...
Being able to easily remove it also makes it possible to protect it from the wide temperature variations such as we experience here on the east coast.

I see a lot of good things going for this monitor. The resolution is very good without going overboard, the antiglare/fingerprint coating would be a big help in this application for obvious reasons, and you shouldn't run into any serious issues with off axis viewing. It's thin, relatively light, and the capacitive multitouch effectively eliminates a potential issue of the other display you are considering (occasionally not registering touch input due to IR flooding). Also, at 5V/2A it's not a ridiculous power hog, all things considered.

I'm not a huge fan of the white bezel, but I guess you can't have everything.
I would say that if the brightness proves acceptable for sunny day use and the screen fits your size restrictions you probably have a winner.
