Using the display
The tablet’s screen combines the eye-soothing readability of a liquid-crystal
display with the responsiveness of a pen controller. The screen provides a hard
writing surface, minimizes glare, and increases readability.
■
The display screen is durable but it is still part of a sensitive piece of
equipment, so treat it with the care you would give any computer monitor.
■
Unlike other touchscreens and PDAs, the tablet’s display responds only to
the tablet’s pen. The tablet will not respond to a PDA pen or the touch of
a fingertip.
■
Steady your hand on the display surface when you write. The pressure of
your hand will not affect any open programs.
■
Switching from AC to battery power dims the display slightly to save
power.
