Wacom’s Bamboo Pen & Touch unboxed and previewed

Wacom sure has been busy with its Bamboo line, and now the impressions are starting to trickle in. The Pen & Touch is particularly interesting, marrying what is essentially an extra large touchpad with traditional digital pen tech — and to what effect? Well, the tester at BestTabletReview.com didn’t find much difference in accuracy or sensitivity with his old Graphire, and was particularly digging the 16:9 ratio over his old tablet’s 4:3 setup — making for more of a 1-to-1 penning experience. Of course, it’s probably more up to personal tastes as to whether you’ll really find the multitouch aspects of the unit worthwhile, but they aren’t touched on much here, and you could always just spring for the Pen-only edition if that’s the way you’re wired.

    It is the end of another era at NASA, although this one was perhaps more inevitable than others. Chief Information Officer Linda Cureton announced in a blog post over the weekend that the agency's last mainframe computer was shut down this month, marking an end to decades of room-filling computers. Needless to say, that last mainframe was considerably newer than that pictured above.… »
