This has got to be one of the coolest gadgets I’ve seen for a long time. And I want one.
The Wacom Inkling is a device that you simply clip to your drawing pad. Using the supplied pen, draw and sketch to your heart’s delight. As large or as small as you want. As detailed as you want. As many as you like.
The Inkling will digitally store your drawings to be uploaded to your computer via USB. It will save your digitized drawings in several formats; jpg, gif, png, tiff, etc. You can use any popular graphics software to manipulate your drawings into the work of art you desire.
The pen has 1024 degrees of pressure, so you can add light or heavy strokes to your sketch. You can add layers for precise detailing in Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, or any other graphics program that supports layers.
The Wacom Inkling is scheduled to be released any day now. At USD$199 MSRP it’s a tad spendy, but did that ever stop you before?
