    Google isn't launching the Pixelbook laptop all by its lonesome -- it's also unveiling the previously rumored Pixelbook Pen. The stylus lets you draw and write on the Pixelbook's touchscreen, of course, and it promises to be responsive with a low 10ms latency, 2,000 levels of pressure sensitivity and 60 degrees of angular awareness. However, the real party trick is its tie-in with Google Assistant: You can ask Assistant to search for items just by circling them. If you've ever wanted to search from an image or a snippet of text, it's now relatively trivial.
