Haha, "vee-ola, your done"

But really, this was a great review. I'm getting one of the newer wacom tablets, the bamboo create, and although it's different, this video gave me a good idea of what the tablets are like. good job, thanks for the review! ;D

Customer Reviews:

I am in my later 50s and and not to smart when it comes to computers and especially tablets. My vision is getting worse and it is getting harder to read things. I have been wanting a tablet but know nothing about them. I came across the Mi Traveler tablet by Michley Tivax at Best Buy and it seemed to have everything that I wanted and ...

[TheOddStrange]

This is the CTH460 model, correct?

[TheOamadeus]

lefty yay !<3<3

[ldreyees]

doesn't the pen work because of magnetism?

[DanielThespaniel99]

hmm i wonder how the pen works could you tell me. lol

[OJJVZ]

Dude, there were pc's in the 1900's .... There was even USB somewhere halfway in the 90's. You young people might not recognise them all as computers cus they had like half a meg of ram or less, but they were there :P

(or were you thinking of the 19th century? xD)

[FLMovieMaker]

i just want one...mabye not this one... but i want one NOW

[FLMovieMaker]

im gonna start investing into getting one! i got to try one out... and I WANTS IT!!!

[Tygerlily179]

I have this same one and I don't know what is happening! the digital pen won't move on the screen even when my hand is moving it! I've only used it for a couple months and I have like five ideas for drawings and it's driving me crazy!

[2011bartek]

[twinafhell]

@vladimirzakharov small



[Deadpool25mm]

Great Review :)

[ImOutsideTheBox]

I think the pen may have a magnet, thats probably how it recognises it

can you draw over existing photos? Im thinking of scanning my sketches done by pencil on paper and painting over them with this and photoshop, I think you said its possible, but Im not sure

[w00taduck]

@ImOutsideTheBox Yes you can, it will open up as a background, so just duplicate the layer and there you go.

[ImOutsideTheBox]

@w00taduck ok, thanks dude

[FallenX100]

It was a decent video and pretty professional until that's what she said joke lol you messed up

[millianne55]

photoshop elements is included or you have to buy? If it's included where do you find it in your computer,I got my first laptop and it's a toshiba satellite and I have no idea how it works! Any help?

[holohulolo]

What does the adobe elements 7 do? and that something color fx pro, what does it  do?

Other than that, thank you for the review.

[FabricateFrog]

[narutofan2122z]

I have this and It was well worth it. Glad I got it. It inspired me to draw and I got a lot better ^_^

[jazzygirl3699]

@narutofan2122z im getting one friday :] glad to hear you like drawing and find use for your tablet ;)

[Du3ky]

What are your ratings out of?

5 or 10?

[MISSPEACENY]

in the last night i buy that tablet but i need some informacion and there is!

[starwolfff]

Can you put a piece of paper on the tablet and draw on it (example: I want to draw a cat ear, and I want it exactly the same size as the one I draw on a paper earlier) Is this possible?

[shawnde1]

your desktop sucks dick and make bologna sandwich [:

[MissTechnoLover101]

is it hard to get used to?

I ordered mine yesterday....

[MissTechnoLover101]

is it hard to get used to?

[alco19357]

Maybe you should have someone else do the reviews...

[lolsa123]

[cangri48lbp]

[Kaspar1665]

@cangri48lbp he tells you in the info..... $99.99

[cangri48lbp]

@Kaspar1665 oh thx xD

[danraverz]

@RitzPhantom i stammer i was just wondering

[danraverz]

@RitzPhantom i stammer aswell mines a bit worst but getting better

[HolyCrapZeo]

ME WANT!ME IS GOING TO STEAL ONE MUAHAHAHA ME IS A BAD GUY

[canoncamera123]

Do you recommended it I want one badly but I'm still not sure it seems awesome but I don't know still.

[TandCVidz]

The pen works by magnets.

[ghostofsouls]

can i use macromedia flash?

[chibifan5]

does the surface seem like it can be easily scratched or is it pretty durable??

[ChaosTFox]

*sigh* mine won't work with the pen( It's almost 2 days old!!!) yet my fingers work

The tutorial doesn't work with it either! ToT

So, should I just return it, & buy another?

[artisttutorials]

wait, does the pen have a battery? mine was sensitive from a little bit far off of the touch tablet. but now you have to hold it kinda close. does it need to be changed?

[Jinx11111]

hey im left handed and have horrible drawing skill too lol

[KoreanCockapoo]

I am thinking of starting to learn how to use photoshop and learn more about graphics but i am just starting out. do you think this would be a good solution for me? is it very easy to use for a beginner? :D

[xDragonchiefx]

Now I certainly am going to buy one (for art stuff). I understand a bit more about this stuff and think it's not that hard to get the hang of it... Lol you sound nervous xD

Do you happen to know if you can scroll inside a drawing (Like you've just drawn a head and want to draw the body now, but there's no room on your screen, can you go down)? Or is the screen all the room you've got (like you'll just draw over the space you've just drawn)?

[Phrosh1]

@xDragonchiefx i just bought one yesterday and you're right: it's not that hard to figure it out ;).

you can either use the touch function to navigate through your document (two fingers at the same time means scrolling) or actually use one of the two buttons on the pen. when you press the button assigned to this function, you are like grabbing the document and shifting it on your screen (if you're familiar with photoshop: it automatically activates the hand-tool).

[xDragonchiefx]

@Phrosh1 Lol just bought one Friday myself xD Pen&Touch (fun). It's easy to get used to drawing and watching the screen the same time. Actually nothing is hard with this tablet. Writing is harder to get used to.

Yeah got the scroll function now... Frankly I have never worked with photoshop... Im getting Sai (a similar program) from which I've heard works good as well... The most difficult thing for me will become getting used to the program, yet the tablet is already becoming part of me lol xD

[Phrosh1]

@xDragonchiefx lol :D. with me it's the other way round: writing worked well from the very beginning, but then i tried to draw something serious, i failed hard :D.

as for me, it took me a couple of years (about 3 - 4 i guess) to really get used to photoshop. i still discover new features :D. if the software you'll get is as complex as photoshop, prepare for doom and the "WTF effect", when you first look at the graphical interface :D.

[xDragonchiefx]

@Phrosh1 Lol yeah it's kinda difficult... But I got a few persons willing to help me out on the program if I dont get it. 3 to 4 years? Well I dont plan on taking that long xD Some pals told me it might take a year, but I am eager to draw... But I'll see... If that's what it takes, that's what it takes ...

[Phrosh1]

@xDragonchiefx after one year you'll definitely be able to do all the stuff you want (with photoshop). it takes more years to find out that certain things can be achieved either better or faster. with "better" i mean, the final product does look more like you planned it to be.

i can only speak of photoshop, so maybe you'll be quicker in your software :)

[HMFRiverdale]

JMHO, but the mere fact that you are using a PC and not a Mac, negates your entire review. . . I listened to the first 3:18, but stopped after you admitted your PC use. . .save up your money and get a Mac. . .

[Phrosh1]

@HMFRiverdale maybe he actually wants to do something with his computer.

[lyingpancake95]

is there a setting where only the pen is sensed and not your hand or fingers

[Phrosh1]

@lyingpancake95 yes, you can even turn it on or off by assigning it to one of the four buttons on the tablet

[lyingpancake95]

did you actually pronounce viola like (vee-oh-la)?

\= l

[AhmedThaking]

I didn't get that with the piece of paper?

So u can freely move around the pen and the marker follows it? or what did u mean? u did not made your self clear

[MrMey97]

I have a problem. my pen does not work. that is, when I use my fingers works fine, but when I use the pen, the mouse pointer does not move ... help me!

[Learncountriescom]

I find it really difficault to use :-( i am so much better to draw with a pencil and a paper. I just got my Bamboo today, (you can see my video with the car) its my first try with the bamboo. I think its because there is no screen to view at, you have to look at the computer screen.

[yurikmusic]

hahaha "viola"

isn't is "voila"? :D

[guitarizt143]

What software does it comes along with?

[Emopius]

Does anyone know if you can use this in Adobe Flash CS5?

[Alexey325]

16:9 ???

[canontmr]

Ugh the way you talk reminds me of my Chem teacher.....

[Anichols321]

I got this for free and I don't even know what it is for. Can anybody tell me what it is for and what applications to use it in.. Thanks haha

[gabrielajocson]

@Anichols321 It's mostly for doing graphics/drawings/etc... The applications you can use it on are Adobe photoshop, there are more apps you can use it for, but Adobe Photoshop is the only thing I can think of right now.

[Anichols321]

@gabrielajocson Ok thanks. I don't need photoshop or anything so I will most likely give it away.

[angelo171]

this is just like a huge touch mouse pad

[raulsingh777]

thanx dude,

i have started working on alias(sketching), so how good is it for sketching

[xxXAnimeFreak4evrXxx]

wow, this is exactly what i wanted to see, thanx so much :D

[houseofdominique]

Oh wow.... you need to cover your thumb with a plaster or something mate! I'm lucky i wasn't eating. Put me right off your pitch completely! Sort it out.. That's just wrong.

[aku192]

Enunciate, dude. ENUNCIATE!!

[Lambientan]

yo tengo una igualita.

[joehomie99]

what is wrong with you. can you not speak without mumbling and stuttering. WHAT DO YOU KNOW.

[iTouchiPhoneReviewer]

@joehomie99 dude....... this video is a year old when I started out doing video reviews.......... seriously go watch my newer videos

[Cyanideone]

First of all the tablet is for both right and left handed people. Secondly I just can't understand why you should chose to review a graphics tablet since you clearly have no idea what it's meant to do. You are clearly not into drawing, painting, sketching and so on. You don't just buy a graphics tablet because it looks good on your desktop or because you can use it as a touch-pad. So, why not make a review that is actually useful to the people who would purchase this product and use it properly?

[notsocomicaltv]

@Cyanideone Thats just not true. whilst I'm a graphic designer and I use tablets for photoshop and whatnot; they aren't restricted to these things. I know a lot of people who suffer from RSI who use these to stop wrist strain. Many people use them simply instead of a mouse, not something I do; but I can certainly understand why...

[iTouchiPhoneReviewer]

@Cyanideone you do know I did not buy it right? Wacom the company contacted me asking if I wanted to review it FREE OF CHARGE.

[UnleashedSoulz]

@iTouchiPhoneReviewer I think he just proved you wrong and now youre trying to make up lies. Just my opinion rofl.

[iTouchiPhoneReviewer]

@UnleashedSoulz your kidding me? you think I bought this? dude go check out all my videos all the products I have gotten are from the company.

[lancasterKENT]

Can u use this 2 draw on a PDF document??

[iTouchiPhoneReviewer]

@lancasterKENT with the right programs yes

[b1gbudda]

@lancasterKENT yes

[marcelinhovr]

@lancasterKENT with the right programs yes

[aka0jelly0bean]

i have a question , i m getting it today and i have a net-book do you have to download the programs to use it?

[iTouchiPhoneReviewer]

@aka0jelly0bean yes if you want the pressure sensitivy and all the features.

[dansullivan539]

"and Viola! your done" lol

[dansullivan539]

"and Viola! your done" lol

[IcedCoffeeKitty]

my pen isnt working? i changed the tip because it was slow and now it wont even move. the touch still works though.

[namesRforChumpS]

yay! fellow lefty!!!

[Blu32TV]

@namesRforChumpS good to see haha

[pgf95]

"ok?"

[XxUltraGaMerxX]

Holy Crap I just realized this is made for left handed people THANK GOD! This tablet is a must buy for me! (and yes I did notice you said that after 5 seconds of typing this)

[tuntuni1000]

Very nice review!!! Thanks for this!!!

[dellaclearing]

Excellent and very thorough review, thanks for making this vid!

[leopardstarleader]

how meny times can the tablet be downloaded to multiple computers?(i got one for christmas and i will download it to both my comp and my aunts comp if i can)

[R1DDL3RS]

It probably uses a touch sensor, the pen is probably just a shell so you don't much up the pad. The buttons are probably with a circuit that somehow connects with the bamboo...not sure.

[XxitsNatixX]

do you ate your nail?

[illmindset]

nice review. i like mine so far

[ImogenandDanielle]

you annoy me.

[LLThenu]

Wankers of the world unite! by posting idiotic comments like fried rice etc on this perfectly nice and well intended review...

Or...wank some more...you'll probably get more pleasure from that activity. Warning: blindness may incure. And that would be sad sad sad...To be blind And dumb;). Oh well, 2010, and the level keeps on dropping...

[sobekflakmonkey]

stuhh-stuhh..st-utter.

[mreisma]

i dont have it yet, but what software would you use to write on pdf documents?

[SkizzyDesu45]

thank you for doing a reveiw on this produt. i am considering buying it and this helped alot.

[jsebastian00]

[TerIphik]

@adambomb8857

I agree! I am not english or american and I can`t understand anything...

[Allisob]

He can't read cafe press?

Calf-aye press.

PRESS. P.R.E.S.S

Oh my gosh.

[Allisob]

[KitsuneNiwa]

"You can use this for the rest of your life, and it will never run out of... magic."

lol, you should advertise for Wacom.

[Artillerytactics]

i LOL'd when he said "you just flip the tablet over, change it in the settings, and VIOLA!" It's like I should say a random orchestra instrument to show emphasis from now on. (for the less intellectual in music, a viola is basically a string instrument typically found in an orchestra)  FRENCH HORN!! .....I don't know why I found that funny, I must be insane. Anyways, so is this tablet good for drawing? because I'm really thinking of buying this one since others are Damn expensive

[mangaforever1234]

whats the size of the tablet your using?
