After much consideration I decided to restrain myself and wait, wait for newer models the prices of the older models will come down .. but then again maybe .... I could still decide on a laptop vs tablet.

Sure a tablet has the cool factor when you're at the cafe sipping your latte with pretty girls around playing with their gadgets and you have one too as well (, and it's great for reading ebooks, email, watching movies without getting out from your bed but it's not really a machine for working is it? You can't really type too fast for hours on end on a tablet vs using a laptop keyboard. With a laptop I look straight with a tablet a have to look down, If I have to sit that way for hours to work I think I gonna crane my neck.

So yeah unless the price is like really really cheap I could get a tablet but I think I'll probably still settle for a laptop.

NAME
glutTabletMotionFunc - sets the special keyboard callback for the current window. SYNTAX
#include <GLUT/glut.h> void glutTabletMotionFunc(void (*func)(int x, int y)); ARGUMENTS
func The new entry callback function. DESCRIPTION
glutTabletMotionFunc sets the tablet motion callback for the current window. The tablet motion callback for a window is called when the window has tablet input focus (normally, when the mouse is in the window) and the user generates tablet motion. The x and y callback param- eters indicate the absolute position of the tablet ``puck'' on the tablet. The callback parameters are normalized to be within the range of 0 to 2000 inclusive. Registering a tablet motion callback when a tablet device is not available is ineffectual and not an error. In this case, no tablet motion callbacks will be generated. Passing NULL to glutTabletMotionFunc disables the generation of tablet motion callbacks. When a new window is created, no tablet motion callback is initially registered. SEE ALSO
