Genius Adds Two PC Tablets
John Laposky -- TWICE, 7/7/2009
Miami - Genius announced two new additions to the company's lineup of digital tablets for personal computers: the EasyPen i405 and MousePen i608.
The EasyPen i405 has 28 programmable hot keys, for instant access to common Microsoft Office and Web browsing functions. The cordless pen features 1,024-level pressure sensitivity and two buttons for controlling shapes and thickness while drawing or writing. It has a 4-inch by 5.5-inch working area for portability.
The MousePen i608 has 29 hot keys and a larger, 8- by 6-inch working area. It comes with a cordless mouse with integrated scroll wheel.
Both tablets can be used to write, draw, sketch and sign documents. The company called the new models "ideal for creative types who like drawing, bloggers, artists and anyone craving a digital pen as opposed to a keyboard, which only allows typing."
Both come bundled with PenNotice, Annotate for Word, Commander, PenMail and PenSigner software. The tablets are dual-platform, working on both Macs and PCs.
The EasyPen i405 has a suggested retail of $79, and the MousePen i608 is $99.
The tablets became available today at Newegg.com, Amazon.com, Tiger Direct, Buy.com or other retailers and distributors.
