Why is writing with a stylus imperfect... I have been using a tablet for a year and used it exclusively for note taking during my last semester in school last year... I was on Vista and onenote and it worked out great! The handwriting recognition was good and the reaction time of the one note page was as good as a real pen and paper.
With a pure tablet like ipad (no physical keyboard) I would expect the stylus to be more useful especially for tasks like writing emails.
- sliverstorm 17y agoThe pointer is never as precise as I want it to be- mine is always a few pixels off, and every other tablet I've tried has been worse. You can argue or justify etc all you like, but I have always found this very disorienting. Handwriting recognition is also approaching perfection, but it's not quite close enough yet. Maybe for some people with good handwriting it is 'there', but I'm not one of them, and I have to stop and correct a word too often. Plus, symbols recognition is tricky, along with words not out of the dictionary, so command prompt and programming are not fun. Yes, stylus + touch screen > touch screen, imho. However, correct me if I am wrong, but Mr. Jobs did not show a stylus once during the presentation.
