Wacom CTH470 Review by a4suited
This is a great product. I could end it here but it does come with it's quirks.
I use it for marking up slides, taking notes and for emphasizing points during meetings. I work in a IT department and I help manage a global infrastructure of enterprise level HD Video conferencing (think skype on steroids w/ WebEx). This allows me to have my meetings from my desk and be that much more productive. Through the video conferencing hardware I'm able to share my desktop (like WebEx) while having a HD video conference. This helps me sketch out or take notes on ideas, initiatives and just whatever. So from a collaboration standpoint this alone makes it worth the purchase.
Personally, I use it with Evernote and photo/video editing software. I already have the ability via my android tablet to take a picture and load it up to Evernote seamlessly. I do a lot of whiteboarding and sometimes i need to make them digital. So I'll snap a picture let it upload then type some notes on it. Later when I want to add to it I just pull it up in a photo editing program and edit it. Once complete I let it resync and upload to Evernote. Great stuff. I'm still getting into the heavier photo/video editing but it's been good for what I do thus far with my photography. I believe once I get into the more advance stuff I'll want a nice wacom tablet.
That being said...
Pros:
- Unique and productive collaboration tool
- Great for a mix of old world note taking and new age cloud software
- Fun to use and makes photo editing interesting
- Although plasticy it does feel great and looks very stylish
Cons:
- It's a total pain getting Inking to work on MS Office let alone getting it to work at all
- Integration with Win7 is better, XP is almost nonexistent and overall it leaves you wanted it to be just easier
- Learning curve is a frustrating one but once you get used to it you'll wonder how you ever did without it
In conclusion, it's a wonderful tool with great potential but it leaves you wanted more. Setting it up, learning how to use it and what it actually works with is frustrating as well as confusing. IF you think you'll be able to plug this in and just able to write/draw/notate wherever you want...then prepared to be disappointed. I've used the older Bamboo Pen Tablet briefly and liked the idea of it. I was hoping going into this new version that it would be an improved experience. In some respects it is but it almost at a tipping point...it could either be technology that actually helps you or technology that you want to help you but in reality you're constantly problem solving an issue with it or calling a help desk.
