A New Toy- The Wacom Bamboo pen!

After a bargain shop at Ebay, I find myself the proud new owner of Wacom Bamboo Pen. I guess it must have been at least 5 years ago when I first started playing with an add-on 0S/2 Cirque touchpad, back then it wasn’t at all responsive and there was no such thing as gesture commands. In addition, of course the handwriting recognition was absolutely terrible. Today I’m writing this on the standard Windows 7 Input window which can understand even my unintelligible scrawl!

The reason for use her is really down to a minor wrist injury, one bad punch on the punchbag and a badly kinked wrist and I have a very sore time using a traditional mouse. I have to say that so far I am suitably impressed!

I said it was a good thing!
