So what’s the point? You can’t natively save a video of your sketch to post anywhere or send to anyone. Beyond the obvious stop and play functionality, that’s it, that’s all. You have the ability to speed and slow the drawing and zoom in and out. The problem with this feature is that it’s too simple. Essentially this is a feature that allows you to view a video of the sketch being made stroke by stroke. Next is the mildly frustrating time-lapse feature. I can only assume this is to add the video capability, but more on that later. This is interesting because rather than use something universal such as a Tiff file that has the ability to be layered, they chose to make their own new file system so you have absolutely no way of circumventing their software. There you will find everything you ever drew, all in Wacom’s proprietary Inkling WPI file format. The library function is very straight-forward, you have a folder on the receiver of the Inkling labeled ‘My Sketches’. There you can only do a few things: look at your library of drawings, watch a sort of time-lapse of how you drew the sketch, or save/export the file out. When you plug the receiver in after drawing, the Inkling software is automatically launched (at least on Windows).

As mentioned previously, all the software needed is onboard the receiver, just plug the receiver in with any mini-USB cable and install the software. Just like the build quality, Wacom has made things straightforward (for the most part) and easy on the eyes. The power button is on the left while the right button is used to create new layers. The pen is comfortable in hand but after prolonged usage, my hand would get tired and cramp. Holding the pen between my fingers it felt a bit too thick as well, but with very little cushion. When you slide the pen out of the Inkling case, you’ll notice a certain heft to it, nothing overbearing and unusable but definitely heavier than I’m accustomed to drawing with. The Inkling’s receiver is plugged into it to charge and, as mentioned before, the pen is housed within the hinge. The case itself acts as a dock for everything. This means that as long as you’re near a computer, you can view all of your sketches.

The receiver houses all the software needed to use it, both Mac and Windows, as well as a folder for your sketches. Brilliant! The portability doesn’t end with the physical case either.
Not only does this keep the pen safe and secure, it also charges it with two connectors inside the hinge. As an example: rather than just make a spot for the pen to sit within the case, Wacom has engineered the pen to slide into the hinge and click-lock into place.

Everything isn’t just strewn together either, you can tell that a lot of care was taken in designing the Inkling to be as portable as possible. The case houses the pen and receiver as well as a USB cable and extra ink pen tips. When you open the box that’s the only thing in it. Everything needed fits into a single 6.75″ x 2.5″ x 1″ black case and when I say everything, I mean everything. The Inkling’s look seems to have been based on their already elegant-looking Intuos4 drawing tablets, a very glossy black on the matte black affair. As always, Wacom has done a terrific job in the build, look, and feel of their product.
