Wacom Inkling Digital Sketch Pen

Love sketching but you’re unsatisfied with the quality sketches you get from a regular tablet?

That’s where Wacom’s Inkling comes in. It works similar to the Livescribe but the Inkling doesn’t require special paper.








The Inkling uses a clip-on receiver that you attach to your notepad and then you sketch with the included Wacom ink pen which has 1024 pressure points. Your sketch then gets transmitted to the receiver which can then be plugged into the computer so you can upload your sketches. What’s amazing is that the receiver has a button which will add new layers to your sketch. Once imported, you can edit these layers in Photoshop.

Wacom has nicely bundled everything into a small charging case ready to go at a moments notice.

Wacom’s Inkling will be available in mid-September at $200.
