Customer Reviews

I bought this since the lowest capacity (16 g) thinkpad on Amazon (fulfilled by either Tigerdirect or Circuit City) does not come with the pen. Hence I am reviewing this pen separately.
I love this thing. It's the only reason I bought a tablet at all frankly. The Thinkpad (so far as I'm aware) is the only tablet that works with Sketchbook Mobile from Autodesk WITH input from a pen. I use it as a digital sketchbook daily. Before I used a Wacom tablet on my laptop. A cumbersome setup which also was heavy.
This pen is comfortable in the hand, has a pleasant weight to it, and is relatively well at being used for drawing. It is not quite as accurate as my Wacom, but the difference is negligible, especially with the convenience of being able to draw directly on the screen. It has a button on the side which I've never used, but thankfully its not obtrusive in any way.
If I had ONE complaint it would be that it "klacks". All N-Trig pens seem to do this, but its when you tap the pen to the screen its a bit loud from the tip bumping against the internals of the pen body. It cant be helped, and you do get used to it, but it still is a little off putting at first since it seems like you're being a little obnoxious while you are using it.
It ships with the cord to attach to the tablet, a single AAA battery, and 2 spare nibs.

This styuls is excellent. The weight it good, the tablet responds well to it, and it is nice that there is a port on the tablet to store it in. If you are ordering the 16GB Thinkpad Tablet you will need this pen. If you are ordering the 32 or 64GB, the pen comes with it. It comes with 3 tips, a AAAA battery and a tether. I don't use the tether as the tablet holds it very securely. It is a little noisy when writting. Others have said a screen protector will cut down on this, though I have not tried it. I don't really like screen protectors.
