Wacom Bamboo Pen


$69.00 Released September, 2009

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Affordable price. Fully compatible with the major next generation operating systems. Way superior to a mouse when drawing or colouring graphics on a PC.

The Cons:Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch combo is only $40 more - well worth the price over the stand-alone $70 Pen or Touch. 512 levels of pressure sensitivity vs 1024 levels on all other pens included in the series.

The Wacom Bamboo Pen is a computer-input gadget that connects by USB and allows users to sketch designs with a battery-free and ergonomic pen. The pen in fact hosts 512 levels of pressure sensitivity on its tip, allowing for natural brush strokes that translate correctly onto the screen.
