Description:
|
The Waltop QPad is also sold by Aiptek under the designation "Aiptek HyperPen Mini". The two products are identical.
This minimalistic USB tablet is a set composed of an active two-button pen and a thin flexible mousepad-like aquiring surface (active area approx. 11.5x15.5cm). The active Pen takes a single AAA battery and offers 1024 pressure levels along with the two buttons, no eraser functionality, no tilt recognition.
The tablet is closely related to some low-end wacom tablets (Bamboo) and thus runs on the linuxwacom's wacom drivers. Waltop Int also offers Linux drivers and configuration tools on their homepage.
The tablet runs OK under Linux SuSE 11.2 and KDE4.2. When using Xinerama multihead-display settings the tablet needs to be limited to a single screen (config via "wacomcpl") to work properly.
Although the manufacturer claims the tablet is appropriate for mobile use (laptop/notebook), the aquiring surface of the tablet is quite susceptable to EMF. Usage on top of a keyboard (interference) or on any metalic surface (alters the frequency response curve of the surface's sensors) is impossible.
Note: This tablet should only be used if you are looking for an annotator or just want to try out a tablet. For Professional use (blender/gimp/photoshop...), a tablet with a more solid design, smoother surface and substantially better pen should be chosen.
