A touch screen user interface is provided that is adjustable between at least two positions, and preferably adjustable over a range of positions. By providing the ability to adjust the interface's position, the user can optimize screen placement for either data entry or viewing. Additionally, the screen position can be optimized for the user's seating position. As a result, when the screen is being used for viewing, for example when the screen is being used with the navigation system, the user can easily see the screen without having to look downward or dramatically alter their viewing angle. Similarly, when the screen is being used for data entry, for example to input data into the navigation system or make adjustments to the audio system, the screen can be positioned so that the user can easily reach the interface without straining, thereby helping to avoid neck, shoulder and/or back pain.
