Why can't wacom make a Orange pen?

ExcessiveZero

I don't know about you but I for sure have spent hours before (but most often a few seconds or a minute) looking for my pen when it has either rolled under my desk or gone to the side, got mixed in with other pens etc, the annoyance of having to search for a pen there would add up to many lost of productivity hours over the years.

I just wonder why wacom doesn't offer a luminescent model, its pure black, so easy to misplace, I think I might try putting some orange tape on it, see if that does the trick.

I did that at my last job--put bright tape around the edge. It definitely helps you find it in a dimly lit office.

Just about everything on my table is black so I lose my pen at least once a day. Also People go on my table looking for a working pen all the time and the Stylus is the first thing they pick up.

Id love to stick a few gel pen grips on the thing if i had any

They give you a pen holder?

May not be your thing, but I use velcro. Just wrapped the fuzzy strip around the back end of my pen and put the other side of the strip behind my monitor. Voila, pen is always where I want it when I need it.

Bright tape around the edge. Genius!
I loose my pen at least once a day, it's the most frustrating feeling when your entire setup is black! ( and here I thought i was the only one that lost my pen enough that it bugs me.)
@Two, i lost my pen holder a long time ago. It sucks because it had the extra tips inside.

I strap a glowstick on mine and tweet on a rave whistle to the tune of whatever is on my headphones.

have a surgeon place a small bomb in your abdomen, then put a transmitter on the pen.
set it up so that if you don't type in a key code every hour, the pen sets off the bomb.

not only will you never loose your pen, but you can probably get your work place to play "hero" music every hour to remind you.

ahaha best answer!

as for keeping it in the case thing thats good for my bamboo with that little red tab thing they have with it, but the intuos4 holder pen can fall out when you're just moving something around not even near your desk.
