I never really worked with Wacom’s products, or with tablets in general. I tried to get use to work with it when a friend borrowed me his old tablet, but I could not become familiar with that way of working. Additionally, I don’t do much drawing or retouching on my computer anymore, so there isn’t any point to get a graphic tablet for me.

This said, I’ve been quite impressed when I discovered the latest Cintiq tablet by Wacom and it almost makes me want to try it out again. The touch version will come out in August at $3699 (yes, it’s expensive), but there already some older versions for sale (about a thousand dollars cheaper).

Looking at the price, I think I will start by trying their Inkling pen.
