I’m not a tablet or smartphone user, so playing with the ZaTab was a new experience. Poking the screen with my fingers feels messy and somewhat childish, like fingerpaints. But I can appreciate the technology behind the touch interface– it’s slick how the screen orients itself when you move the tablet, and zooming with a pinch or squeeze is kind of fun.
