Q: so if it's wireless, what's the usb for??
A: If you do not have a Bluetooth connection to your computer then you will need to use the USB cord. Also, the USB cord is needed to charge the internal battery in the tablet.
A: Hello there, than you for asking. I'd like to clarify that the Intuos tablet doesn't have a screen, this is a pen tablet input device that sits next to your keyboard and needs to be connected to a computer to work. When you use the pen inside the active area of the tablet this one maps to the screen you have for your computer. That said, if he's getting started and you would like for him to work directly on a screen, then I would recommend to consider/explore the Wacom One as that is a Pen Display tablet. You can see it from here > https://www.bestbuy.com/site/wacom-one-13-3-graphics-tablet-flint-white/6393542.p?skuId=6393542 - Note that a computer is also nedeed. Hope that helps. Best!
Q: Just wondering, why is it more than double the cost of the smaller version?
A: The smallest version comes in two varieties, wired and wireless. The wired version is less than the wireless. The small wireless version is half the cost of the medium size. All of the medium sized tablets are Bluetooth wirelesss. The extra room you have on the medium size allows you to work on larger pictures and is well worth the extra price.
Q: Will it work with windows 10
A: Yes, my daughter uses this on Windows 10.
Q: Do you still have the option to connect directly via usb? My desktop at home doesn't have Bluetooth.
A: My tablet is connected via USB and works perfectly...
Q: does it work with power point and other MS office products ?
A: Thank you for the question. Yes, the Wacom Intuos tablet does work with MS Office software as well as a lot of other software programs.
A: Hello and thank you for reaching out about using the Wacom Intuos tablet to capture handwriting into a SVG file. Any of the applications mentioned will work. However, there is free software from Wacom such as Inkspace as mentioned, that will work just fine. Hopefully that will answer your question.
