You can shake whatever you want, but if you’re a photo editor, graphic artist or cutting edge product developer, you’re gonna have tremors of pen tablet euphoria when you hear Wacom has a product redesigned especially for you.
It may not be news about a multi-touch Cintiq or a portable Cintiq, but the new Wacom Cintiq 21UX is here and it’s got the features you actually need to make quick work of photos, graphics and models. Here’s the quick run-down for you and the kids.
There’s a multi-touch rash starting to spread across the butt-checks of CAD that no penetrating ointment will cure. So, when SolidWorks demonstrated their future platform independent MCAD platform it was no surprise to see some multi-touch features thrown into the mix.
However, what’s supremely interesting is not the multi-touch, but the device being multi-touched. It’s what we thought looked very much like a Wacom 21UX Cintiq. EXACTLY like one, except one major difference. It had both stylus and those fancy multi-touch capabilities.
So, after quite a bit of digging and verifying through a few channels what we suspected, it’s confirmed this is indeed a prototype Wacom Cintiq Multi-touch with a tentative retail appearance slated for Update Summer 2010 (this has been recanted by Wacom, however I will make the assertion that we will see this Q4 of 2010.) Here are the shots from the show.
