Adobe goes to hardware!
Adobe has introduced its *Ink* & *Slide*.
A tad expensive at $199, but interesting to say the least. http://www.adobe.com/products/ink-and-slide.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cI4DZpJJ-J4 -- Regards, Savageduck |

They are going to sell a lot of those, but I bet a lot of people discover it is not as easy at looks and give up on them after while. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

It's more than double the price of the Wacom Bamboo, yet less than other Wacom tablets. I wrote the above, before looking at what you get. It seems to be iPad only. I can see some uses for those who would like an in the field method, but I greee, it does come for a high price. -- PeterN |

The big feature is the integration with CC and the ability for the folks in the design and art communities to work on a project and move it between the iPad and the CC apps and the Behance community. For those with little interest in the Adobe stuff, or wanting to spend the $199, there is the very powerful and functional ArtStudio. http://luckyclan.com/artstudio/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOOyL_2zE7g -- Regards, Savageduck |

That is going to be best used by a individuals with skills and a purpose. Others will have to climb the learning curve to justify their outlay. Might as well wait for the used ones to show up on eBay. -- Regards, Savageduck |

A free membership provides access to these services." I wouldn't touch this with a 10 foot stylus. That free will become fee - if not specifically then for access to newly introduced features down the line. What if you're traveling and have no internet connection (or not a fast enough connection)? Adobe cloud is a honey trap of the worst kind. -- I was born a 1%er - I'm just more equal than the rest. |

Conventional artist tools provide far more control for drawing. There are numerous options to get a tracing of an image (as shown in the video) in a graphic editor. It might be handy to do something like digitize a signature without requiring a scanner, but that kind of functionality is not worth much expense. I have a friend who does surprisingly beautiful drawing in MS Word, using only the tools there. He did a praying mantis that's gorgeous. I have no idea how he accomplished it. While I'm very impressed, I also think he probably has too much time on his hands. The fact that it *can* be done doesn't make it an exciting option. |

I am sure there will be used ones once some folks discover they never had a need for one in the first place, and now have a $200 thing sitting on a desk doing nothing. As for the Adobe CC account that can be arranged at any time. However there are going to be those folks who are going to think that this is just an iPad tool. They are going to be sorely disappointed. -- Regards, Savageduck |
