Please, I would like to know if anybody already use the "Panasonic FZ-G1" with a Labview application. This tablet uses Windows 8 OS.
My intended is to use with a USB-9234 device to measure mechanical vibrations.
Thank you.

If it runs Windows and doesn't have any "exotic" hardware that needs a specific NI driver (very unlikely), it should work fine. One thing to consider -- if you try to use Mouse Events in an Event structure, you may have some difficulties with the Touch screen. We have a Windows 7 program that ran a LabVIEW routine to measure human reaction times -- a button appeared on the monitor, and you reach out and touch it. We originally had a touch screen "overlay" we placed on the monitor -- this acted exactly like a mouse, so we simply used LabVIEW Mouse Up and Mouse Down events, and Mouse coordinates if we wanted to know where the touch occurred.
We then got an "All-in-One" with a Touch Screen monitor, and discovered that Windows was "capturing" the touches and messing us up. In particular, Mouse Up was hard to get (I forgot how we "forced" this, but it wasn't easy!). One reason is that Microsoft really wants to know how long you touch the screen, as a "long touch" is interpreted as a Right Click. Note that Mouse Down was also problematic -- not until the "Right-click time" elapses can you tell if the event is a Left or a Right click!
But if you're not being "fancy", you should have no problems (Famous Last Words).
