Wacom Introduces the Intuos Creative Stylus for iPad

Connecting to 3rd and 4th generation iPads and the iPad mini, the Intuous Creative Stylus is a brand new pressure sensitive stylus from Wacom that aims to simulate pen on paper. The pen can react to 2048 different levels of pressure, enabling you to paint the perfect stroke. Powered by a AAAA battery that Wacom claims lasts up to 150 hours, the aluminum brushed pen connects to the latest iPads through Bluetooth 4.0, enabling you to rest your palm naturally on the iPad, while additional shortcut buttons can active various features in supported apps. At launch, the Intuos Creative Stylus will integrate with apps like Autodesk SketchBook Pro and Wacom’s newly revamped Bamboo Paper for sketching and taking notes. Wacom’s latest pressure sensitive stylus will run you $99.95, is available in black or blue, and comes with an additional carrying case, battery, and replacement nibs. You can order the pen online today from the Wacom Store, or wait until the pen hits Best Buy stores in October.
