Resistive touch vs. digitizer (and the new Classmate tablet) - 32 views

Thanks for info. I did see the ASUS Eee tablet, and my concern with it (though I am excited by it) is the same as with the Classmate... that resistive digitizer. My students don't use tablets on ...

    it will have a 1.6 GHz Intel Atom N270 processor, a 60 GB hard drive, and Windows XP. The clearest improvements have been made to the 8.9-inch screen's touch interface. We complained last time that: Because the Windows XP Home OS is not meant for tablet use, we had to install a few of our own freeware programs to take full advantage of the touchscreen. Turns out Intel had some pretty interesting plans up their sleeve and now the notebook is preloaded with lots of software that takes advantage of the touchscreen including a program called Vision Objects Pen Input, which turns handwriting into editable text and contains a virtual keyboard. And that is just the start of it. Intel plans to team up with software vendors to preload the laptops with a stack of touch-focused applications.They are also teaming up with content providers, such as McGraw Hill, to package the laptops with learning tools. Beyond the software additions, the accelerometer has really been fine-tuned. Turning the netbook vertically adjusted the screen orientation in under 2 seconds. So sure the Convertible Classmate is meant for children and isn't a netbook that adults will want to carry around, but its implementation of touch technology on a netbook is what we hope to see from the mainstream netbook vendors that plan to bring touch to the smaller screen. A simplified home screen menu (so you don't have to dig through XPs menus), preloading touch-optimized software and a speedy accelerometer are some of the Classmate's solid features that we want to see in adult touch-enabled netbooks.

  • To view a list of useful keyboard shortcuts that make accessing OneNote tools, commands, and dialog boxes faster and easier, click Keyboard Shortcuts on the Help menu.
  • If copying and pasting text and graphics from a Web page to a page in your notebook doesn't seem to properly retain the formatting, try capturing the information in a screen clipping instead. On the Insert menu, click Screen Clipping, and then drag the pointer to create a rectangular selection around the content on your screen that you want to capture.
  • To see when a block of notes was last written or updated, right-click the paragraph handle preceding the text in any note container. The last two items on the shortcut menu will show you when the text was created or updated, and by whom.
  • To move an item, such as a block of text or a picture, so that it appears over or under another item on the page, hold down ALT while moving the item.
  • Before sharing your notes, check for spelling mistakes. Press F7 to open the Spelling task pane and start the spell check. If the task pane is already open, click Start Spell Check.
  • You can easily modify the templates that are included with OneNote and create a custom design of your own. Start by applying an existing template to a new, blank page, and then add or change anything you like. On the Format menu, click Templates.

  • Use different colors to identify participants in a live sharing session. Ask each person to use a specific pen or font color when he or she adds notes to the shared page. For example, you can type your notes in blue text and use a blue pen to mark up a diagram. Another person can use green text or a green pen. Add a list of names and corresponding text colors at the top of the shared note page so that session participants know who is typing or writing.

If you take notes by using an outline format, collapse your outline down to the highest level of information, and then quiz yourself about the details hidden in the collapsed levels. To work with outlines, turn on the Outlining toolbar. On the View menu, point to Toolbars, and then click Outlining.
  • To quickly open a side note, even when OneNote isn't open, press the Windows logo key+N.
  • To help you line up items on your pages (for example, note containers or pictures), OneNote automatically snaps the items to an invisible grid as you move and reposition them. To temporarily disable the grid, hold down ALT while you move an item on the current page. To permanently turn the page grid option on or off, click the Snap To Grid command on the Edit menu.
