An input device is provided which is capable of entering a double tap operation even if an operation through a touch panel is performed in difficulty. The input device includes a coordinate acquiring section, a pressure acquiring section, a coordinate condition storing section, an on-pressure storing section for storing a first pressure and a second pressure smaller than the first pressure, a time condition storing section, and an input judging section. In operation, the pressure of the first pen touch operation detected by the pressure acquiring section exceeds a first pressure. Then, if the pressure of the second pen touch operation detected by the pressure acquiring section exceeds the second pressure within a certain time stored in the time condition storing section, and if the second pen touch operation is performed within a distance stored in the coordinate condition storing section, the input judging section qualifies the two consecutive pen touch operations as a double tap operation. As the threshold of the pressure of the second pen touch operation is smaller than an ordinary pressure, the double tap operation can correctly be identified even if the pressure of the second pen touch operation by any user becomes small.
