Design Inspiration Tuesdays!

This site is focused on Wacom tablets, but as a graphic designer, I'm interested in art as well of course. I'm constantly looking for inspiration online and in life so I thought it would be nice to show art that can be created using Wacom or other tablets. Hopefully you'll be inspired too!

The theme today, which was unintentional, is "romantic"? Er, that's the best I can think of to describe it.

Samsung Series 7 Slate

This Samsung PC tablet is very intriguing to me since I'm in the market for a new laptop and like the fact that it can be used as a stand alone or with a wireless keyboard.

Samsung isn't new to the tablet game, but the company's newest offering - the Samsung Series 7 Slate - may be exactly what buyers have been waiting for in Windows tablets. We went hands on with the new Series 7 Slate, and we were pleased with what we saw.

Windows 7 PenBook Tablet on FCC Website

This Cregle PenBook tablet is interesting. It may not look as sleek as other Wacom tablets, but it has a Wacom active digitizer and other nifty features.

The Cregle PenBook is a new tablet computer with a 10 inch display. But while most tablets hitting the market this year run Google Android, the PenBook is a Windows 7 machine. It also adds a digital pen for handwriting and drawing to the mix.

We first heard about the PenBook last month, and now the tablet has shown up at the FCC website. While there’s still no official release date, it looks like the computer is inching a little closer to reality.

HP Elitebook 2760p Works as a Tablet Too

This notebook tablet might not be a Wacom, but it does use the Wacom digitizer.

Pen and Touch

A dual pen + touch digitizer is standard on the 2760p. It is the Wacom digitizer model with two-finger input. Responsiveness is excellent, as is typical of the brand. As previously stated, touch works well up to and at the edges of the display.

Pen input, however, loses precision near the edges. This normal for Wacom digitizers, as I’ve seen this on every one I’ve used. It’s fine for tapping buttons, but you’ll see wobbliness while jotting notes in the margins. Of course, between zoom and infinite virtual pages, it’s not like you’ll be squeezed for writing space. Away from the edges, both pen and touch work fine. The strengthened glass screen provides a no-flex writing area.
