Best add-ons and comments rewarded :) weekly

Every week I will select one of the best developed comments of the past week, in a special article on the front-page of the blog, signed with your name! So be motivated, creative, imaginative, detailed, attractive, complete, and most important USEFULL...and who knows.

3 comments:

  1. I was wondering if a "notion ink innovations" (or something like that) could be added too as a menu. Just a place where people can talk about things that they'd like the notion ink to adopt in an Adam 2 or if possible in "upgrades" of the Adam 1.

    I for example would really like the functionality of the Asus Eee note ea800. Mainly for sketching. A nice example of this, can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIwKg-KyZ58

    I know notion ink has no pen interface, but sketching with a finger, doesn't appeal that much too me. :)

    In the QI version there is the screen option that "looks pretty much like paper", also black and white I assume just like the Eee. Well, I'd love to see a sketching program developed for that, that will cancel out "touch" interface temporarily when the program runs and then adopts a pen interface instead, preferably with at least 512 levels of pressure sensitivity.

    Maybe inputting it in the hardware like the eee , would make the tablet too expensive (but the Eee only costs around 200euro's as well, so ... I dunno about that :) ), but there are other options. Ten One Design is allegedly creating a pressure sensitive pen for on the ipad, which you can observe here: http://www.cultofmac.com/ten-one-design-demos-pressure-sensitive-ipad-stylus/49437

    They make the pen + software create the pressure sensitivity. Perhaps Notion Ink can find such a company as well ?

    Anyway, if an innovations section is added, then perhaps this post can be moved there. ;)

  2. What the asus is showing here is really pretty amazing and fun. It reacts also very quickly and precisely. That 's not the same result as with the softemulation on the ipad. Of course it could be the processor of the ipad, but probably also the fact that it is an emulation. So i would also prefer your idea of a "dual" screen and having the real stuff. ... but probably that will not be possible.
    The questionis, Is such a function interesting for people that will occasionaly use this function or is the demand for this big. If your would be a graficus, you would maybe not use the Adam, or any other tablet!, you would want to have a professional more powerfull computer....?
    I like drawing , and yes a portable sketchbook would be very nice to me, and probably Canvas is not perfect as long I can't use a pen... I'd like a CAD-program on it too (small one , just to materialize up coming ideas and test them....). PLEASE, CAN SOMEONE HEAR US? ;)
    Does someone know the fysical diffrenc between the
    two type of screens?
