This is definitely the case but the pressure varies. W/o dirt between
NuShield, case and screen the pressure is sort of evenly distributed and as
soon as spot like particles of dirt go into the gap the problem becomes
evident. Curing is obvious: increase the spacing by e.g. scraping off
material. BTW, I also tried to measure and found that the screen digitizer
works with some sort of resistance measurement. There is a varying
resistance measurable between some of the four digitizer ribbon cable wires
which changes according to the pen position. It must be some sort of bridge
arrangement to be insensitive to voltage changes but I couldn't figure it
out how it works.
