Incredibly cool...

I'm amazed that the Wacom Bamboo works with this tablet. This completely gives away how Wacom is doing 'active' digitizing via their tablet. The Bamboo is a capacitive sensor, and the pen is a capacitive stylus. Thus palm rejection is a software implementation.

Bottom line? Any quality capacitive implementation can support this pen, with the right API. I bet that the HTC Flyer is using this technique, it would be so cheap to implement...

I would *love* to see some palm-rejection algorithms. I would also love to see optimized input to handle faster handwriting speeds.

Thanks!
