Targus debuts the Touch Pen for Windows 8, we go hands-on (video)
The Targus Touch Pen for Windows 8 is a paintbrush that you can rub all over you Windows 8-enabled PC monitor, whether or not it's actually a touchscreen. By using an independently powered dongle attached magnetically to one side of the screen, the Targus Touch Pen's strokes are picked up as both actions in the "Modern" UI and within a painting application we were shown (running on a non-touch Acer laptop). It's hard to imagine many folks using the Touch Pen for its touch capabilities, but we sure could see ourselves spending an afternoon using it for electronic painting. Regardless, the pen retails for $100 and becomes available to aspiring digital artists everywhere in Q2 2013. Take a peek past the break at our hands-on video for a better idea of what you'll be getting yourself into.
