Wacom Tablet

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi every one,
I am a furniture designer who is constantly doing sketches etc while I am on the run, eg. I have an idea and want to sketch it out and have it saved.

Would the Wacom INTUOS3 PTZ930 be good for me?. For example I travel alot and spend alot of time on planes. If I draw a picture on the Wacom can I store it on the tablet untill I get to the hotel or office? Does it have any sort of hardrive? or if I have a portable hardrive can I save it directly on to that?
Also does it have a cd rom built in?.

Thanks for your help, im a bit unsure about the whole tablet thing... Im a bit of an old schooler and good with rendering pens etc but not so good at Photoshop, will it still be suitable?

With an Intuos or any tablet they must be connected to a computer to use.
Now you can use a scanner to input your drawings into the computer and use the intuos to continue working on the drawing if you wish.

thanks very much, is there any software out there that can do what i need?.

As software goes Photoshop or Painter can be used for drawing. Thou Painter is more attuned to someone who is use to drawing than Photoshop is.
As you can use natural drawing tools in Painter.

You might want to look at the tablet computers.
