- Actually, the Wacom 510 tablet and pen I use here at microsoft has a
- button on the side, which you can press while you're inking; we just
- implement it as the right button on the mouse.

- In reality, it's terribly awkward; a switch might in some ways be
- useful, but the fact remains that you really don't want to have to
- flip some switch on your pen as you're inking.
