[Avid-L2] Re: Anyone buy a Wacom lately?

 

I write for Post Magazine as well as being an Assistant Editor. I recently wrote a review of the Wacom Intuos 5 Touch and love it. I can definitely tell that using the stylus puts less strain on my wrist and I feel faster. The quick keys along the side help me tremendously. Grouping by aux tc is a huge pain in the butt without Quick Keys but with the tablet I can program most of my keystrokes into one button.

I'm a convert.
