Dell multi-touch screen is still ongoing teething issues according to a report published online Monday. The N-Trig digitizer used in Dell multi-touch Latitude XT Tablet PC has problems that almost seven months since the launch of the products have not been resolved. According to users, some of the problems that prevent software errors exploration to find, making the tablet useless in auto and two modes. Although this problem disappears after a few reboots, many see it as frustrating and counter-productive. The report goes on to appoint a vice president who has the additional digitizer clicking items while the pen is hovering when the tablet is left in standby.

The problems apparently are not relegated to the scanner, because the wireless card seems to stop working at random, with a reboot is back on track. Despite efforts to work with Dell technical support to solve these problems persist, he says, before concluding the Latitude XT is not ready for the mass market.

Microsoft Surface computers, to be released next month and is already used in some retail stores, using similar technology to have the human touch instead of stiletto heels. Apple also uses multi-touch, but so far only used for handheld devices and the trackpad.
