Does this pen only work with Photoshop, or will it work with other programs like Paint Sai, Gimp, etc?

Definitely, just install drivers and it should work with gimp, also cheap and durable, great for beginner

This model doesn't have a digitizer screen. So any pen won't work. You need to buy the model with digitizer support which is probably few hundred dollars extra

Not sure. I have an Asus EP121 that has a wacom digitizer and the pen works great with it. It also works on my ATT Galaxy Note.

Thank you for your question. The inkling and sketchmanager software is not compatible with Paintshop.

This pen is so wonderful, it works on XP, Window 7 and 8 for me. I have all 3 machines and it works wonders, even work on other Microsoft application such as MS Word.

Most of the pens only work with their respective tablets. Assuming the mouse functions similarly, I'd assume it only works on the Bamboo Fun.

I'm on Windows 7 / 64 Bit, but don't scan into Photoshop. It works great scanning into Paint.NET.

It works with most any software, yes. It works - but not well - with GIMP, but it works just fine with Photoshop and Illustrator.

Well, Havent tried that but It works every bit as good as my old Wacom 6*8 Serial, and that worked pretty well. Really gonna depend on what program U are using. THis tablet does work with photoshop CS2? Cant remember which version I have. I mainly Use it with ArtRage, which is amazing with this tablet.

I can't tell you that I'm 100% sure... but since it works with photoshop cs4, I guess it does...

I picked up an ep121 at fry's in concord last week, I have a CINTIQ 21UX, and I'm employed as a character artist. The cintiq pen and intuos pens won't work on it as people have already said. The pressure sensitivity is not working in photoshop, i think there's a driver fix for this but i haven't bothered with it. Photoshop works best with a keyboard/keypad anyways. Alias sketchbook pro will be your friend. The brushes work great and the program is stroke based. 256 levels of pressure sensitivity, it depends on the artist. It's fine for me, I don't know that my arm has 256 levels of pressure. The line quality is good and it's responsive while drawing. Awesome device for drawing on the go, or sitting on the couch. Any serious work you'll probably want to use a standard computer, but no reason you shouldn't be able to do great things on the ep121. Battery life i get around 3-4.5 hours depending on use. I hope they start shipping these things out to you all soon, I'm loving mine! ps. This thing also runs zbrush pretty well. although it's pointless to try to use zbrush with a resolution os 1200x800, the menu's are too filling. But, it CAN handle a million polygons without much problem. I didn't try maya on it yet. If anyone's interested i can give it a shot.

I like using the pen for photoshop, especially once you get into precise and detailed work. This is definitely an expensive item for some added convenience, but if you have the budget, go for it. You'll probably find yourself enjoying it for even regular computer use besides the photo stuff.

Of course Tana. It works fine and smooth with all graphics software. I've used it with Photoshop, Illustrator, Gimp, and even Paintool SAI. I even use it instead of my mouse. Check some of my works using this Wacom Bamboo tablet at http://angelascanio.deviantart.com

The stylus/digitizer is by ntrig, which does not have a good reputation for working well with PhotoShop. I've tried it myself and it doesn't work except as a simple mouse pointer.

Yes it does. At least with Gimp. I do not know if it works with wine based programs.

After you install it to your computer you'll have to use it with a photo software for example I have Photoshop Elements 11{any program should work}. Photoshop Elements will recognize it , and just use it as pen instead of a mouse. oh by the way This does come with a earlier version of Adobe Photoshop Elements{I'm not sure which one, because I didn't install that version , because I already have PSE 11}. Comes with something that looks like a UBS Card, that you plug into your Computer UBS...I leave mine in all the time. I don't have the manual on hand right now, I have to look for it tonight when I get home but, if you need more info...Please let me know.
