I have another question Clayton, more of a technical detail than anything....
With the hybrid resistive-capacitive hardware you propose. And with the limitation of resistive sensors to only being able to register a single x-y coord at any point in time. How does the 10gui system detect the multifinger clicks required for the advanced window manipulation? As an aside, for the list's benefit, I've been using the latest wacom touch-pen tablet for a couple of days now. Its a really exciting and natural way to interact with the OS. However, with the capacitive only input one has to hover their fingers above the surface a lot. Resting a finger on to the surface is an action. In short, its becomes a little tiring to use a capacitive only multitouch surface for prolonged heavy duty input. http://www.wacom.com/bamboo/bamboo_pen_touch.php I only see touch as a primary method of input working through Clayton's proposed solution. However, I don't think I fully understand how multiple clicks are achieved with current technology. thanks! /pauric . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
