Heard that line before. When Microsoft unveiled the whole Tablet PC concept several years ago, most of the units required a special pen... not true touch. Microsoft made it sound like a big step forward. I bought one and hated the pen. It's not the way to go.
Now I use a little Classmates computer which is true touch... and has technology for resting your palm on the screen as well.
Samsung's technology is old, and not the way to go.
No advancement here.
