    I'm looking at Tablets/convertables/UMPCs lately, and noticed 2 different forms of digitizer: Active and Passive. What's the main difference in accuracy and such (I know active uses a special pen with a battery and passive uses anyhting, even a finger (which is never advisable), but beyond that I'm clueless)
