Most of the methods I could imagine being used to identify the position of 
a pen on a graphics tablet seem to be useless - e.g. a grid of wires - too 
many connections, ultrasonics - too short a distance between points. 
Bearing in mind the cost of A4 and above sized tablets, I would like to 
construct my own, if reasonably possible.
