Two years additional warranty protection for the Intuos3 pen tablet range
Wacom, the leading manufacturer of pen tablets and interactive pen displays, today launches the Intuos3 CarePack, offering an additional two-year product warranty for all pen tablets in the Intuos3 range. The CarePack increases the period of Wacom¹s premium support from two to four years, providing extended customer service for professionals who wish to enhance and protect their valuable investment in Intuos3 pen tablets.
Along with an additional two years of premium phone support included, the Intuos3 CarePack also contains a selection of Wacom extras. It comprises five additional standard pen tips, five stroke and ten felt pen tips, a pen tip removal tool and a Wacom sticker.
Intuos3 CarePack conditions
The Intuos3 CarePack must be purchased within the coverage period of the standard Intuos3 two-year warranty and is valid from the purchase date of the Intuos3 pen tablet to be covered (proof of purchase may be required).
The Intuos3 CarePack requires an online or telephone registration and each CarePack covers one Intuos3 pen tablet.
Intuos3 range
The Intuos3 pen tablet range is available in A4, A5 and A6 formats, as well as recent editions, the Intuos3 A5 Wide, A3 Wide and the A4 Oversize. The A3 Wide and A4 Oversize are available in CAD or DTP configurations.
Intuos3 provides extended functionality through the ExpressKeys and Touch Strip. The ExpressKeys are four-button keypads that can be pre-configured with frequently used modifier keys and the Touch Strip acts like a scroll bar with presets to allow zooming and scrolling. Situated on the left and right hand side of the tablet¹s active area, users can directly access functions such as pan and zoom, cut, copy, paste and undo at the touch of a fingertip.
For high precision work, each Intuos3 tablet also offers a resolution of 5,080 dpi and 1,024 levels of pressure sensitivity in both the pen tip and eraser. The pen tablets are able to recognise the tilt angle of a Grip Pen of up to 60 degrees. Each input device also offers Tool ID. In supported applications, the tablet automatically recognises the relevant tool with its individual settings when the device is brought into contact with the tablet.
Pricing and availability
The Intuos3 CarePack is priced at £64.99 excluding VAT and is available from Computers Unlimited.
The tablets have a USB connection and run on Windows 2000, XP or XP 64bit and MacOS X 10.2.8 or later.
