This should be a fairly easy one, and I'm pretty sure it's impossible, but I thought I'd get a second opion. I'm studying Japanese and got my hands on a nice piece of software that will help me practice my handwriting. Only problem is that drawing with a mouse is really different than by hand. Now I'm running this on an Aopen laptop with it's own mousepad. Thought that maybe if I got a PDA stylus and set the sensitivity to highest it might just work for text input. No such luck. Just wondering if anyone has any ideas how I might get this to work. (incidentally Windows XP Pro SP1, all updates, 1024MB)
