Microsoft Surface Pen will replace a mouse?

Geek-9pm:
Would you want to?
Replace your mouse with a pen?
Is the pen mightier than the mouse?
You can Google it or read this:
Surface Pen with touch control

--- Quote ---    A patent filing by Microsoft reveals plans for a Surface Pen with a touch-sensitive retention clip. The clip will also enable a power-saving mode that could extend the battery life of the stylus.
    Patent applications are not an indicator of a product coming to market, so Microsoft Surface users are cautioned not to get too excited.

It is not going to happen.  8)
The idea is not new at all. How can you patent a pen?

DaveLembke:
Only graphic artists could benefit of a pen vs mouse and they already have that option for free handing artwork digitally.

For gaming etc I cant see going to a pen which would be almost going backwards to a joystick feel.

The Surface Pro is a tablet/laptop. There is no "Mouse" to replace...

Somebody thought the Subsurface Pro should  have a mouse .
The touch screen does not have enough actuary when you  use a big finger.
The solution is to use your little  finger instead.  :P
