Graphire

How did Graphire come about? First, we started with a mouse. Made it one of the most accurate on the planet, with 1,015 lines per inch of resolution. Next, we took away all those things that annoy you about mice-- things like cords that get tangled up with your coffee cup, or a ball that needs weekly cleaning just to track right. Then, we added a pressure sensitive pen, so you could draw a sketch, add a note to an email, or simply sign your name. Combine those with the tablet, and you have the perfect solution for all your input needs-- all in a space no larger than a mousepad.

The three button Graphire Cordless Mouse, complete with scrolling wheel.
The Graphire Pen, with programmable DuoSwitch™, built-in eraser and 512 levels of pressure sensitivity.
The Graphire tablet with removable pen stand and transparent overlay for easy tracing.

Right out of the box, you've got three great software applications with Graphire. Painter Classic™ lets you draw and paint with chalk, pencils and oils for truly amazing effects. PenOffice™ SE (PC-only) offers state-of-the-art handwriting annotation. And PenTools™ is the award-winning set of pressure-sensitive Photoshop plug-ins from Wacom.
