X60T works with/without stylus?

#1 Post by kai » Sun Oct 16, 2011 2:33 pm

Hi,

I was told this by someone the other day but I have no idea if it's true or not:

"All finger touch tablets were made with XGA resolution only. Some SXGA+ models do exist but are pen touch only."

A couple things I need to clarify here:

1) Did the 'finger-touch' only tablets not include a pen/stylus?

2) If it's 'pen-touch' only, then it means that it's definetely SXGA+?

Reason I ask is that I'm in the middle of trying to source a spare screen, specifically after the SXGA+ model. However, all signs point to the fact that it's a XGA screen but the seller says that they seemed to remember that they needed to use a stylus with it, that it didn't work without the pen. The screen is also seperate from the machine so it's not a particularly easy job to find out what type the screen actually is. Anyone with any ideas would be gratefully received!

Thanks

The answer to both of your questions is no. The hand-touch model also supports stylus input, and there are stylus-only models for both XGA and SXGA screens.

Cheers.

Sorry, I'm not familiar with distinguishing between stylus-only and MV/MT screens myself. Someone else may give you more insights...

support.lenovo.com says it's got a "12.1in 1024x768 LCD" screen and no multitocuh driver is listed for it, so it seems.

If you've got Windows installed, I suppose there will be something listed in the Device Manager with regard to the MT subsystem (ref: http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloa ... D=DS001408).

Cheers.
