Oh wow, you can use the new pen with the SP3? Interesting.

Why wouldn't you be able to do that? Seems logical that it would work. Unless Microsoft changed the pen manufacturer (again).

In the presentation they went on about PixelSense and how they had re-engineered everything. Evidently the protocol between the pen and screen remains the same though.

It does work. Microsoft bought n-trig last year.

Ah, I'd been wondering how they had single-handedly managed to take on N-Trig and Wacom with in-house tech. Makes a lot more sense now. I'd missed the acquisition.
