I've been wanting to get a new digital drawing tablet for the last couple years now. The one I have is ridiculously old (it works with a serial port). But it seems like every time I get ready to buy one I end up blowing all my cash on frivolous stuff like diapers and car seats. Well guess what Logan? You better learn to hold it in because the new Wacom Inkling looks totally boss.
The Inkling works both as a traditional pen and as a drawing tablet. It comes with it's own special ball-point pen and portable receiver. Just place the receiver at the top of any piece of paper the receiver records all your pen strokes. It's the best of both worlds. At the end of the day plug the receiver in to your computer and you can upload your sketches as either a traditional image format or as a vector illustration. It even has a button for adding layers onto your picture. It's expected to hit the shelves in late September for around $200.

* yes I dream of digital drawing tablets and no I don't think that's weird.
My name is Kevin and I blog, mostly about nerdy stuff. I'm old enough to know that Gobots came before Transformers and geeky enough to care.
If you have something cool or nerdy you just have to share, e-mail me at kevin @ devildinosaur.com
