Touch screen?

The only problems are the size of many buttons (you don't see where the
mouse is before you "click") and the implicit "single buttoness". The
first problem could be solved through additional prefs or "TS Edition"
images the second is a bit more difficult. If the device has some buttons
they can be pressed into service as modifiers but this is not very
elegant. Tap, double tap and triple tap are another approach which is
equally ugly which means that a good TS Squeak is still a bit of work and
it is unlikely that the base image will ever be useful. I still hope that
Aaron will release a new Dynapad image.

P.S. Maybe gestures for buttons 2+3 ... Hi Genie
