'multi-touch' vs 'capacitive touch' - any difference? thank you.

Capacitive touch screen means the response is smoother and faster than old touch screens. Multi-touch screen means it accepts 5 input-touches and tracks each input at the same time.

It is possible to disable the multitouch, I did on my LT2030u. I can not tell you exactly how since I don't have the netbook with me but try right clicking the touchpad icon on the lower right of the task bar this should bring up an options menu.

Short Answer: Yes, no multitouch. Long Answer: Linux Mint 15 is based on Ubuntu 13.04, and there has been support for the Apple Magic Trackpad in Ubuntu since about 10.04, but no support for multitouch. (That was about a year ago, the situation may have changed.) Pairing can also be confusing. Just search for "apple magic trackpad ubuntu" for details and the current state of support, it's on the Ubuntu wiki.

The Note line from Samsung has a Wacom digitizer in addition ot the capacitive digitizer. So you can use either fingers or a Wacom type stylus. This is not like the squishy styli you can use on capacitive displays, but is pressure sensitive and much more accurate than capacitive styli. You can do art with this type of stylus.

Yes, I am currently using one on my Raspberry Pi... touch requires a USB connection also, but the monitor has two USB ports to make up for the one it uses. However, I am a little disappointed with touch on Rasp Pi though. I'm currently using Raspbian, it is taking some tweaking to get things like double-tap to work reliably. It works, just don't expect it to be as simple as a tablet to use.

Hi Francesca! Maureen here from The Friendly Swede:-) My apologies for missing your question, and not replying sooner! The answer is YES! These stylus and all of our stylus line, are compatible with any capacitive/touchscreen devices. Let me know if I can be of more help here at this link:

It only works properly with one touch, it might work with one touch 2, not properly though.

I believe the biggest difference is that you don't have to swipe your finger. You just have to let your finger on it and it reads it.

I think you mean the Magic Trackpad (Multi-Touch trackpad) by Apple.?!I tried it on my laptops trackpad and it worked but it was very jumpy and I think it would drive you crazy, it's meant to be used with your fingers and also why would you want to use it on there when the Apple trackpad is really for multiple fingers to do multiple gestures.So, if i were you I would not use it on the Apple Magic Trackpad - but I would use it on any iPad, iPod, or cellphone - (anything with glass as the "touch" surface :)

It gives you both. You can choose which one works better for you with one button. To be honest that's exactly why I got it haha

It is touch screen. Also a very small pin to use that is in the wrist band. If that is whay you are asking. . Not sure whay the resistive or capacitive means.

The question I have aside from the issue of multi-touch is this, why doesn't the manufacturer and the elocity web site state"multi-touch" or show that function being demonstrated in a video? Surely they understand and can appreciate the value thatfunction has for a great many potential buyers. The fact they choose not to use that verbiage signals to me that it isn't truemulti-touch.

This is very helpful. Other discussions have also noted the the SE trackpad does not have multitouch either. I will follow your advice and get the regular nc10, thanks S. Quran!

From what i recall the touch screen is optical and does not register pressure or sensitivity, it triangulates your touch based off a horizontal and vertical sensor. As such it will take any form of input, which has its benefits.

Yes it is. It supports until 8 tactil points. It comes with a few games that support multitouch, so various players may play at once.

Simple, it isn't multi-touch and thus, useless to me.I will be waiting and paying more for the stronger product: HP Slate

Not really - the screen seems unresponsive at times and, at least from my own experience, I have to reset the unit on occasion to get it to work again. I think it's related to the screen using optical touch recognition rather than capacitive touch like a smartphone.
