using touchscreen technology? I recently came up with a possible invention using touchscreen technology and instead of submitting the idea for another company to buy and take over, I would like to patent it and mass produce it myself. I'm willing to start up a company to do this. What steps would I take from idea (in my head) to retail distribution, how much (cost) am I looking at, where can I turn to get a working concept built, what do I need to present to possible investors and how long am I possibly looking at from idea to usable concept? I know this is a lot of questions, but I'm really motivated and I anticipate that this will be the next big thing. Please help.
