Remember the the professional pen tablets–the Bamboo series–released by Wacom some time ago? Well, this recent Intuos4 tablet from Wacom is just like that Bamboo series, albeit this one has controls on the side rather than on top of the screen. Don’t expect though that the Intuos4 has a multitouch capacity (like the upgraded Bamboo series) because it has none.
It, however, has user-defined ExpressKeys as well as multifunction Touch Ring that makes it easy to use functions like zooming, panning and other shortcuts. It is especially designed for artists since the pen is designed in such a way that it feels like writing on a real paper.
