hi this is dieter bohn of the verge and we are looking at tech based on synaptics new touchpad chip with the clear path 7300 which why this matters is it's able to read up to 10 fingers at a time which is nothing new but I can do that while still maintaining a refresh rate of 100 Hertz so it's a much more accurate the other thing that's interesting about the 70-300 is they manage to do all that a single chip whereas previously it had taken 15 so what you're looking at here is actually an HP touchpad and they ripped out the old board that had 15 chips they put in the new so d300 which is one and they're able to do all of this synaptics is also making a big push on Windows 8 they are showing off the way that they can do gestures and track pads and their palm rest control so that you can ignore palms while still reading up to five fingers at a time and also drawing on the trackpad so that's what synaptics had to show off at CES 2012
