I haven't tried with a touch screen, but what about

This opens applications full screen and has a sort of finger-friendly menu system.

Also Openbox-KDE gives access to the KDE environment with a minimal window manager (no plasma).  

Don't you want to run these (choose as the desktop from e.g. kdm) on the host desktop rather than the tablet?

Has anyone tried a smallish bluetooth keyboard -- I am also experimenting with a tablet for remote access/administration/support.
