Hello,
I have my intuos 4L since a year and I have put a polycarbonate sheet on it because of nibs eaten….
I contacted wacom, the technician said that a new surface overlay is coming, I buy it twice and It’s exactly the same, I lost money with nibs, with new surface sheets and for nothing.
Wacom didn’t admitted this fact and doesn’t want to pay for shipping cost for return of their shitty sheets.
Wacom is composed of thieves, they steal clients. SHAME ON THEM

Ten year with a wacom digitizer II (serial port) and that’s finish

Greg – Oh cool, thanks for the info. I’ll have to check that out.

Mike D – I used to work on a desktop, but I have switched to a MacBook Pro. When I am at home I use my large Intuos 4 with the laptop, but when I am outside I use my Fujitsu ST5112. If you plan on using a tablet with a laptop and you are outside, I would go with a smaller sized tablet.

Off-topic question. Do you usually work on a laptop? Just curious if so, what size tablet you have. I’ve recently bought a MBP and in the market for a newer tablet more than likely an Intuos 4 but since I’m finding myself on my MBP more often now and if the large size is a bit too large for laptop work, or if the medium in your opinion fits better. My MBP is a 15.3.

Thanks

Don’t be so complacent, this is obvious designed obsolescence. Come and join the army of complainers @ 30 pages long wacom forums thread – http://forum.wacom.eu/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1438

The writer of daarken.com has written a superior article. I got your point and there is nothing to argue about. It is like the following universal truth that you can not disagree with: If there are at least two prople in the world interested in something there is a website about it. I will be back.

Nice blog. I got a lot of effective data. I’ve been watching this technology for awhile. It’s intriguing how it keeps changing, yet some of the core factors stay the same. Have you seen much change since Google made their most recent acquisition in the field?

Hi – really good web site you have made. I enjoyed reading this posting. I did want to write a remark to tell you that the design of this site is very aesthetically delightful. I used to be a graphic designer, now I am a copy editor in chief for a marketing firm. I have always enjoyed functioning with computers and am trying to learn computer code in my free time (which there is never enough of lol).

Hey… about the surface and nib wear, you can buy sheets of perspex from ebay very cheap, get a 2-3mm thickness sheet, they will usually cut it to size for you also. I wrapped a protective sheet around the tablet you get on monitor screens when you buy them new.. though anything with some a little grip would work, just keeps the perspex from slipping around…
I’ve had 0 nib wear since, and it works just the same, as a Wacom rep said on the wacom forums, that as long as your drawing within 2 inches or so it’s fine.

Hope this helps you, and anyone else reading this with nib problems!
