As another owner of a DTI-520, my stylus appears to be different from Adam's stylus. The eraser end does look like an eraser (and it does wiggle a bit), and when I press it against the tablet, the LED on the tablet flashes as if the tablet is reacting to it (in a similar way that the LED flashes when the "pencil" part of the stylus is pressed against the tablet). So I think that indicates that the DTI-520 *does* work with both a pointer and an eraser. -- _--_|\ | Kathryn Andersen <http://www.katspace.org/> / \ | \_.--.*/ | <http://kerravonsen.dreamwidth.org/> v | <http://kerravonsen.redbubble.com/> -----------| Melbourne -> Victoria -> Australia -> Southern Hemisphere Maranatha! | -> Earth -> Sol -> Milky Way Galaxy -> Universe ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
