I was wondering if there is support for active styluses on the pinetab. I’m looking for an arm linux tablet with support for styluses for taking notes, watching videos and browsing the internet. Any suggestion would be great!

I asked this question in Pine chat some time ago. People said that only styluses that "emulate" finger will work.

Dang! For the me, that would be a killer app. Here’s to hoping!

I don't think so. I assume this bit in the wiki for PineTab2 is referring to active styluses when it mentions pen inputs. (Presumably a passive stylus should work.)

Does the Tablet support a Pen?
No, adding a digitiser for pen inputs would make the price too high.
