Using a Stylus in a Tablet
The stylus allows you to actively navigate through the menus. You can use it as a mouse and also as a pen.
Using the Stylus as a Mouse
You can use the stylus the same way you use a mouse or touch pad with a notebook computer. Holding the stylus near
the display makes a small cursor appear. Moving the stylus moves the cursor. Table 1 describes how to use the stylus.
