I am using Win32_PointingDevice class to detect mice connected to the system. I ran my device discovery script on a machine which has touch screen. The discovery shows up with 3 pointing devices, directly connected USB mouse, wireless mouse and touch screen. My question is how to distinguish between USB mouse with touch screen.

If Win32_PointingDevice class doesn't provide information then are there any other methods which I can use to get mouse and touch information.

This is extension to my previous question at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1746689/wmi-class-for-wireless-mouse
