I am 99.99% certain the internet tablets use resistive touch screens, which means this underlying technology cannot do multitouch. Using more than one contact point on these screens will change a reading, but it won't get the result you want. It will be an intermediate reading between the

the touch screen resolution is even more than that, it has a native resolution of: x res of ~~~ 3500 units, and y res of ~~~ 3100 units. These are typically scaled to the screen by calibration process but are readable using the xsp extension. :D On Thu, Sep 4, 2008 at 3:22 PM, Eero Tamminen

I would not expect the lower precision of a capacitive touch screen to be a barrier for the user if it's a small enough ratio, but you could convince me otherwise. 2 or 4x seems doable. So then the barrier is stylus usage. Why do we want a stylus? The cold weather, physical and/or mental
