Built-In Notebook / Laptop Digitizer

140 points posted to Laptops by brokencrystal Jun 29

It would be nice if a digitizer such as the Wacom could be put in place or combination with the touch pad on a laptop. It could be in the same location as the touch pad, and if it was in combination with it, you could use a stylus for digitizer functionality, or your finger for touch pad functionality. This way us graphics artists, designers, and engineers could use a digitizer on the go. The stylus could slide into the side of the laptop like it does on a PDA. You could use Wacom's technology to do this and offer it on the Studio and XPS line as an option/upgrade. The stylus could be touch sensitive as the Wacom already supports this technology.

I meant to say: The stylus could be "pressure" sensitive as the Wacom already supports this technology.
