Speaking of touchpads, does anyone know of a (usb) touchpad that works with your finger, not just a pen? (The only ones I've seen just work with the stylus, which is no good) I want to get one and set it up as a MIDI controller, like a poor mans Kaoss Pad (and what I think would be the ultimate expressive MIDI controller). Surely one of these things must exist? -DR-
