It looked like the guy giving the demo was very careful to not rest his wrist on the tablet. Writing without resting your wrist rarely gives good results, in my experience.
I wonder if wrist pressure confuses the tablet about where the pen is?
- sschueller 13y agobeing able to rest your wrist on the device is vital. I find that to be the biggest anoyence on my galaxy note 3. However there is one app that Samsung includes where you can wrest your hand on the device and it does not start drawing blobs on the page but sadly it's not the app I want to use to take notes.
- fumar 13y agoThis is where the Surface Pro excels. I use to take notes everyday at work. The stylus bundled with the Pro is less than ideal. I recommend the Wacom Feel. http://www.wacom.com/en/us/everyday/bamboo-stylus-feel http://www.wacom.com/en/us/everyday/bamboo-stylus-feel
- slantyyz 13y agoI've been looking for a second pen for my Surface Pro, but I can't get myself to buy the Feel because it doesn't have an eraser end. I find myself using the eraser all the time. The Feel is a pretty looking pen though.
- danmaz74 13y agoFor the price, I would hope the pen to be inductive...
- joezydeco 13y agoIf they're claiming 30 days of battery life, inductive might not be a design choice.
- joezydeco 13y agoJust taking a guess here but that pen is probably passive and the screen is capacitive. Unless there's some multitouch capability in the reader that's just not ready yet, placing the wrist or palm on the screen would definitely screw up the pen pointer.

- blisterpeanuts 13y agoOne of the demo videos specifically stated that you can rest your wrist on the tablet while writing.
