Yes, the roland digitisers are unique (AFAIK). They have made a VERY
inexpensive line of digitisers by sacrificing some precision, and

most other digitising machines. The spring steel probe(which works
well with their sensing method), and TINY point are just two of the
money-saving ideas implemented.
The other digitiser methods we have been discussing may have problems
with a spring steel probe, as used in the modela series.
Hope this helps.
