It combines an absolute positioning devide, with a relative positioning device (i.e. you use your finger to either touch a point that maps directly to a screen position, or use your finger like a mouse), with a very small graphics tablet (using a stylus) about 3" x 4". It looks quite promising, but I haven't been able to see it demonstrated anywhere yet. Has anyone used one of these? Is it as neat as it looks? -- DISCLAIMER: Sometimes I speak for PBS. This is probably not one of those times. ______________________________________________________________________________ Thom Watson Telephone: 703-739-5394 FAX: 703-739-5358 Public Broadcasting Service UUCP: ...{csed-1,ida.org,vrdxhq}!pbs!twatson 1320 Braddock Place Compuserve: 73437,654 (rarely on, though) Alexandria, Virginia 22314 GEnie: B.WATSON3; T.WATSON7 (often on) ______________________________________________________________________________ "Oh, I'm bored.
