This seems too good to be true, but I'm still going to ask - is there such a thing as a laser pen that works like a stylus, but without the tablet?

That site looks pretty interesting but I'm not quite sure what to make of it. Anyone?

I would guess that theirs something like this somewhere that could be used for painting digitally but its probably 5x more expensive then just going out and buying a tablet.
also since tablets have been more well established that the technology is probably a lot better and farther along then on of these pens.

but i agree that one day just having a pen insted of a tablet would be kind of interesting

Uh? Look at the prices at least before making such a comment.

I actually wonder if the price cuts of Wacom recently have anything to do with this.

They look rather awkward to hold, and I don't believe they are pressure-sensitive.

ok didnt see the prices looking throught the first time but it still sells its self as a Laser Mouse pen and with a price tag of between 30-60 $ with that much i doubt (and this time double checking) that their is any reasonable pressure sensitivity and tracking that wacom's already excells at, and wacoms are reasonably priced considering that they have a lifetme warrenty and the tech is top quality.

Demo is actually a covert wacom employee who's come in here to trash the enemy.
