    Hi all,

    I am thinking of buying a new Wacom Pen, for my W701.


    Does anyone have an aftermarket Wacom Pen,
    and if so which one? and how do you like it,


    And can you add a link.

    Thank you,

    Hi erik,

    <O:p</O:p
    I know I will ha ve to carry it separately, that’s ok I need something with more options for CS5 Master Collection and Autodesk products. The pen that comes with the W701 is a starter pen.

    And I need some recommendation for Photoshop CS5

    I was looking at the: INTUOS4 Grip Pen

    Wacom and the Intuos4 Art Pen with Stand

    Will this Pen work with my W701?


    Thank You,

    no, unfortunately wacom drawing tablet pens run on a different RFID coil frequency.   the intuos4 pens (or bamboo, for that matter) won't work with tablet PCs.   i wish they did as that's the tablet i have.

    anything labeled "penabled" will work though.
