Yes! The Samsung Note series improves the standard capacitive screen by adding a Wacom digitizer to it. Now, I haven't actually used a Note myself, but my understanding is that to use the digitizer, you've gotta use that S-pen. In short, that means the device has two different digitizers -- the classic (and innacurate, and non-pressure-sensitive) capacitive one for use with your fingers, and the Wacom one, which apparently is an "inductive" digitizer, which I think records the pressure inside the stylus itself, rather than through the screen. Anyway, I'm a big fan of Wacom, so I'm in favor of this development. But yeah, they had to use something completely different from the capacitive system to come up with an accurate digitizing mechanism, something not needed with a resistive screen.
