Might be useful though if I can chop off the number/arrow key area of my KB off and replace it with this kinda device, which could switch between touch input and numeric pad.  Otherwise where ever I place it it'd be a little more out of the way than just moving the cursor over w/ a mouse.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Muu]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 24th 2009 11:53AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Wacom's Bamboo multitouch tablets finally go official, for formality's sake]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/24/wacoms-bamboo-multitouch-tablets-finally-go-official-for-forma/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/24/wacoms-bamboo-multitouch-tablets-finally-go-official-for-forma/</guid><description><![CDATA[In Photoshop CS4, it would be very handy to use the touch features of the tablet to navigate the canvas, while using the pen to make adjustments to the image.

And it packs up nicely too. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[mabhatter]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 24th 2009 1:30PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Wacom's Bamboo multitouch

I use an Intuos for navigation all day editing video, instead of a mouse (I would have carpal tunnel by now otherwise).  The touch would be nice because I wouldn't have to pick up and put down the pen all the time, or palm it while typing.  The touch-only version works like a laptop trackpad however, with relative positioning.  I would need the pen version for the 1:1 relationship between monitor and tablet.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ijohnson2]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 24th 2009 8:24PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Wacom's Bamboo multitouch tablets finally go official, for formality's sake]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/24/wacoms-bamboo-multitouch-tablets-finally-go-official-for-forma/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/24/wacoms-bamboo-multitouch-tablets-finally-go-official-for-forma/</guid><description><![CDATA[Exactly. I've got the original Bamboo because it was about $65 and allowed me to do some occasional Photoshop/Illustrator work; the tablet functionality for a low price.  I definitely couldn't see going for the "touch only" version and sacrificing my penning ability.  For $30 more, I'll gladly pay for both functions.<br><br>I do have to say, though, this looks fatter and much uglier than the original...
