That's still going to be awkward and painful, especially on your shoulder and arm after a while. Think about it - this is something you're going to be using a LOT. If you could put the touchscreen right in front of you like the Slate screens then that might work. Otherwise with your setup that arm will be outstretched in the air and for long term use you're body won't like that.
