The line quality in the video looks pretty decent to me! Need to know res though.

And then I want it to find NoteSlate's office so it can kick their ownership in the shins.

looks promising, if you can draw.
- anyone can draw - you just need to practicehans_glib
- Also, you just need to accept the shapes you make as being 'drawing'. There is no uniform, that's the pleasure of it.Horp
- uhmmm disagree, if you don't have the skill, this tool is SHITE.popfodders

it does look good but it's a ballpoint nib which isn't so great
- I love ballpoint. My preferred sketching medium.Centigrade

from wacom.com
"The Inkling digital sketch pen captures a digital likeness of your work while you sketch with its ballpoint tip on any sketchbook or standard piece of paper."
the word likeness kinda worries me a little. they use it a lot on the website.
i really hope it works well though.

The fact that they show very little output in that first video leads me to believe that the quality probably isn't that great. It's a cool idea, though.

I think the concept is great. it looks like they crammed all their technology into the pen.
it will be awesome for transferring logo concepts to your screen for further tweaking.
as far as capturing your drawing perfectly? I'm extremely curious

def getting this
- def going to demo it in a store somewhere, if possible.CyBrainX

I have a pre-production model and it's incredible. I'm churning out museum-quality work

Reminds me of those Microtek handheld scanners you used to get back in the mid-nineties. They relied on a steady hand and the results always looked like swirly whirly mushroom trips.
I suspect this might be similar.

- Possibly not. Might be able to use standard ballpoint cartridges.hellobotto
