Wacom Bamboo Pen&Touch Tablet
Posted by Mona | Filed under Macintosh, Miscellaneous, Photography
Why do I want a tablet? All for the Photoshop/Illustrator work. And let me tell you, it’s a lot easier to retouch a photo with a tablet than with a mouse. Some may disagree with that, but I know the difference now and for me it’s better to have a graphic tablet.
As I ordered the 27″ iMac, Unimall offered a cheap Bamboo Pen&Touch Tablet – that AND the special discount you get if you’re a student/techer/etc is the ultimate argument to buy via Unimall.
Unimall will redirect you to the original online Apple store and you can buy the product you want, but with the discount from Unimall.
So, yay for me! I wanted a new Tablet anyway and if I can get it cheap, hey why not?
Now to the review of the Wacom Bamboo Pen&Touch.
The pen feels good in the hand and works so smoothly – but I haven’t thought otherwise from Wacom. You get an extra PreferencesPane where you can adjust lots of different things like speed, the buttons and how the tablet width/height shall adjust to the screen.
The touch feature is really nice and a lot of fun. It requires some practice – especially if you’re used to the MacBook/MacBookPro touchpad.
I have yet to really work on a project with it, but I’m on holidays now and have a lot of cleaning/home improvement to do ;)

I love how sleek it is. I have a Bamboo fun coming in. The more upgraded version of the one you got and I got a huge discount + free shipping. So that makes me even more happy about it.
I don’t have an awesome camera to take a photo of it, but I guess my point and shoot will do just fine capturing it’s awesomeness. Have fun with it, and I can’t wait to see what you do with it. Don’t forget to let us know when you do!
Happy New Year
