So long as it has an ACTIVE DIGITIZER, and not exclusively capacitive/resistive touch. Both could be fine with a slick enough interface. If it's exclusively touch, then perhaps this isn't necessary, but with a stylus, definitely.

Even on my current N810, I have to be careful of the position of the device while I'm writing on the screen as to avoid pressing the screen with the pad of my hand. I can only imagine the horror of trying to write on a screen 12" large while levitating my hand mid-air as not to produce unwanted input.

Long time tablet/slate makers have included active digitizers as a standard. After using a large touch screen, it's obvious as to the reasons why.


YARR!
