Using the display
Your convertible tablet PC’s screen combines the eye-soothing readability
of a liquid-crystal display with the responsiveness of a pen controller. The
screen provides a hard, smooth writing surface, minimizes glare, and
increases readability.
■ Unlike other touchscreens and PDAs, your convertible tablet PC’s
display responds only to your convertible tablet PC’s pen. Your
convertible tablet PC will not respond to a PDA pen or the touch of
a fingertip.
■ Steady your hand on the display surface while writing. The pressure
of your hand or fingers will not affect any open programs.
■ Switching from AC to battery power dims the display slightly to save
battery power.
Important If you prefer maximum brightness while on battery power,
use the XtraBright/XtraDim button. For more information,
see
“Tablet control buttons” on page 41 .
