New F200 models - touch screen positioning is borked.

Hi Gernot

I'm not sure if you are aware, but there are new GP2X F200s available now (since end April/early May) that have a different touchscreen panel, causing ALL touchscreen games (not just GLBasic ones) to report wrong X/Y positions.

It might be a good idea to implement a parameter in the "PLATFORMINFO$()" command to identify which model F200 a game is running on and maybe invert/alter MOUSESTATE. May be worth your time investigating this a bit further, before you get cries of "XXX game doesn't work!"

GamePark Holdings have just undone all the hard work created by devs for the F200, as nothing requiring the touchscreen will work properly on new F200s.

Thankfully the GLBasic comp prize was the old-style touchscreen :)
I came. I saw. I played.
