Wacom Goes Wireless

Filed in archive Bluetooth on February 2, 2010

Wacom has introduced an updated verson of its Intuos4 graphics tablet, its first to make use of Bluetooth connectivity.

"Available only in the medium-size version for about $399, $50 more than its USB-only twin, the Intuos4 Wireless becomes a great option for artists and illustrators on the go — or even sedentary ones with an aversion to wires," writes Crave's Lori Grunin.

"Beyond the wireless update for the new Intuos4 devices, Wacom has left the rest of its tablet pretty much the same," according to Mike at TFTS. "The left column of buttons and controls are unchanged, as is the curvy build-factor of the unit. From a hardware perspective, Wacom has only added a new stylus clip and LEDs to display charge status and wireless connectivity."

"There is also a five button, wireless mouse that can be used atop the pad should you need it," notes Wired's Charlie Sorrel.
