The folks at Ten One Design have stepped up to the plate with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tenonedesign.com\/inklet.php?tab=3\">Inklet<\/a>, a program that does quite a bit. Inklet accepts input from the fingertip, but adds even more functionality when used with the company&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tenonedesign.com\/sketch.php\">Pogo Sketch<\/a> ($14.95) stylus. The Pogo Sketch is designed to add stylus control over touchscreens, and that includes the MacBook trackpad.<\/p>\n<p>While Inklet ($24.95) is designed to allow drawing into programs that accept such input, it also leverages the handwriting recognition built into OS X to convert handwritten input into text. The program has palm rejection to prevent inadvertent input when the palm is resting on the trackpad. To appreciate what Inklet can do, have a look at this video:<br \/>\n<object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"425\" height=\"344\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowScriptAccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/XEhL6suRC0E&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0xb1b1b1&amp;color2=0xcfcfcf&amp;hl=en_US&amp;feature=player_embedded&amp;fs=1\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><\/object><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/stats.wordpress.com\/b.gif?w=780\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"feedflare\">\n<a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=xj8R5UidPx0:jfKlBqpkzEM:D7DqB2pKExk\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?i=xj8R5UidPx0:jfKlBqpkzEM:D7DqB2pKExk\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=xj8R5UidPx0:jfKlBqpkzEM:V_sGLiPBpWU\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?i=xj8R5UidPx0:jfKlBqpkzEM:V_sGLiPBpWU\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=xj8R5UidPx0:jfKlBqpkzEM:dnMXMwOfBR0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?d=dnMXMwOfBR0\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=xj8R5UidPx0:jfKlBqpkzEM:yIl2AUoC8zA\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?d=yIl2AUoC8zA\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?a=xj8R5UidPx0:jfKlBqpkzEM:F7zBnMyn0Lo\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~ff\/jkOnTheRun?i=xj8R5UidPx0:jfKlBqpkzEM:F7zBnMyn0Lo\" border=\"0\"><\/img><\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/jkOnTheRun\/~4\/xj8R5UidPx0\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I knew it was only a matter of time until some developer figured out a way to turn the big trackpad on the MacBooks into a little tablet.
