Spend $US15 and Give Your Multitouch Trackpad Tablet-esque Functionality

The Pogo Sketch stylus promises to add tablet-like functionality for laptop’s multi-touch trackpad (YES, including the Macbook). While it probably isn’t the same as a real tablet, it beats drawing crap with your finger.


The Pogo Sketch looks pretty similar to previously-released Pogo Stylus for the iPhone (and probably uses the same type of tip), except that it’s a little bit bigger. And there’s no special tech at play here, except a foam-type tip, so it won’t add any professional-level tablet features to your trackpad. It merely provides a way to use a capacitive surface without your finger.

But if you don’t want to kick down for a real Wacom tablet, need to draw a couple of quick things, and don’t want to look like you have Alzheimer’s, this might do the trick. I mean, it’s only 15 bucks. [One Ten via Gizmag]
