Soooo, my birthday is next Wednesday and since we just got our tax returns (BWAHAHA) I needed a little something for myself.
So, I made...yes MADE (lol) my DH run by Best Buy last night and pick me up the new Bamboo Fun tablet.
OMG GIRLS! This thing is wayyyyyy awesomer than a regular Wacom! Way more sensitive.

Look what I made!

Cute huh?
 
Ooh baby!! I so want one. Please convince me that I will love it more than my Graphire and actually use it more, too. Please!
 
I have the graphire and don't use it alot, I do find it slippery. To bad you couldn't do a trial of it like software products.. LOL
 
ahem.. I think that TOTALLY means you need to uh.. start working on that "thing" with me... now. Stop hiding from me.. LOL

Yes you definately want one. I was upset at first because my dog chewed the cord to my Wacom this past summer and I havent had one since. Now, normally I would be mad at my dog but I am sooooo glad she ate it.
First of all the surface is a lil rough, like writing on paper. Secondly and most important to ME, the cord is removable, so that next time she eats it (Lord forbid) I can just get another. :thumbup:
And.....its about half the thickness of my previous Wacom. About the thickness of a magazine.
 
I SOOOO need that....and if I am not in the drawing I am going to treat myself to one since DH went and spent $750 on a PS3 this weekend:cursing: ...so I think I can splurge for $100-$200...don't you guys think so?
 
LOL that dang girl has been playing with that thing non-stop every since she got it :) I got to see my name "up in lights" about 5 times today, lol ;)

what benefit would those of us that don't design get from having one? Just Jane Q. Scrapper, what would she do with it? convince me :)

Same thing, doodle! Add your own handwriting to your layouts for journaling. Be awesome. What more do you need in life? ;)

you could........... hand write titles.. bits and notes.. journaling etc on your page..

oor... doodle on your page .. :D

ok that was the extent of my ideas LOL
 
LOL Lauren.
Let's see, other than just doodling fun things in your free time, I've made a sticker for a page with my own handwriting. You can also use it to extract things more efficiently (because the pen is better for that than a mouse).
You could sign your name to documents or add it to your siggy, too.
Its just way better for scrapping than a mouse.
 
Now see? I was just resigning to the fact that I wouldn't be able to scrap tonight because (boo hoo Val) has come down with a cold... but I think I might have enough fire in me to crank out a few more points :)
 
Oh I want one! I was just reading in a digiscrap magazine about them and I've been trying to justify buying one ever since.
 
I noticed that my wacom isn't working as well as it once did.....I'm so sad it's breaking (not)....I think I might just have to sacrifice it and get a Bamboo fun! :thumbup:
 
that is really cute Mandy! I haven't really thought about getting one before...I do like the idea of using my handwriting a bit, I'll have to drop hints to dh...;)
 
cool! i saw one at Best Buy. DH says i can have one for my birthday....in June.....but thats so far away!
 
So i told jeff and he goes "99 bucks aint bad" ...... so i thin he's sold LOL not thtat he has a CLUE What to do with it lol. but that is okay lol.
 
I so want one! I already have my own font from Darcy but to be able to extract and doodle would be so cool!

Love your doodle Mandy!
 
The awesomest part about the Wacom's (in general) is that they're a replacement for the mouse. The pen IS a mouse, pretty much. I gave up my mouse almost immediately after getting my Graphire4...it's just so much more control and easier to handle (and more comfy too). I use it to navigate and everything.

DH didn't like it at first, but now that he's figured out how to use it, he'll never go back to a mouse either. When I get my Mac, I'm gonna get a Bamboo Fun so that he has this one with the old PC. :)
 
I so want one of those!! :thumbup:

For those of you who aren't sure about getting a tablet, they take a bit of getting used to, but once you do they are awesome! It took me about a year to even attempt to use mine because I couldn't get used to it, but now I use it as my mouse - LOL! :D
 
My husband got me one for Christmas. I wanted it to be able to put my own handwritting in my pages because that is the only thing I have missed about my paper scrapping but so far I am not really happy with the outcome. It looks nothing like my handwritting. It is messy and all over the place. I am sure it takes a lot of getting used to but unfortunetly I usually won't spend all that time to learn it. You guys make it sound wondeful though. I think I need to order the custom hand font as someone mentioned they had earlier.
