Comments on ‘Wacom Bamboo tablet’

Not cased in bamboo... 

... thank goodness! Saving us the wasted resources of all the whiners on here.

does that pen holder attach

Surely a tablet encased in bamboo would be more friendly to the environment than one cased in plastic; bamboo grows back much quicker than plastic.

Replacement for Intuos? 

This isn't the successor of the intuos. The intuos has many more features (tilt, rotational sensitivity, support for different types of pens etc.), and is meant for more serious gaphical work.

No DPI figure, no linux report, no rho/phi and force-metrics, no flossing the pen for retrieval? 

Zen-nakute!

Twinkie-nakute!
