Wacom updates Pen Tablet Driver for Leopard

intuos 20071211 194357 Wacom updates Pen Tablet Driver for LeopardI think I’m the only Photoshop guy I know that doesn’t work almost exclusively using a Wacom Pen Tablet. Don’t get me wrong–I have one–I just never got good enough at it that I didn’t feel the need to reach for the mouse ever again. I think a Cintiq might change my mind.

Anyway, the Pen Tablet Driver has been updated to the aid of Leopard users with the following tablets:

  • Intuos3 (PTZ)

  • Intuos2 (XD)
  • Intuos1 (GD)
  • Graphire2 (ET-A)
  • Graphire (ET)
  • CintiqPartner
  • Cintiq 21UX, 18SX, 15X and PL 500

Wacom Technology Corp. announced today the introduction of two new members to the Cintiq family–the Cintiq 12WX (USD$999) and Cintiq 20WSX (USD$1,999).

The Cintiq 12WX combines all the advantages and power of direct pen-on-screen input with a new low-profile, lightweight and flexible design. The new Cintiq 12WX is aimed at professional creators of digital content looking to improve and streamline their workflow. Storyboarding for 2D or 3D animations, compositing for post production, designing graphics, as well as retouching photos are just a few of the many creative applications where the Cintiq 12WX will excel.

The Cintiq 20WSX, the world’s first wide-format desktop pen display. Combining the the same design elements and ergonomic enhancements as the Cintiq 21UX, Wacom’s latest wide-format pen display is ideal for those who prefer to work with a 16:10 aspect ratio and may not require the increased resolution of the 21UX.

I’ve been good Santa, really I have.
