PenMoto

venain

Saw this nifty thing on kickstarter.com and thought some people might find it useful if it ends up getting funded. Basically its a magnetic ring/pen holder that looks pretty useful for a stylus setup. Check the link for a video.

Good idea except i dont rest my wacom stylus on my top finger... Cool idea but i predict it would be annoying to use.

LAME!

i want affordable one hand operated keyboards instead
that would be a huge timesaver!

Anything with magnets and Wacom pens (or any digital pens) is a big no no for me. Also, I already something like this personally, and they're not conformable...

How, exactly, are you holding your pen?

i just lock my pen between my fingers like this when i want to type

Am I the only weirdo who just... you know... puts the pen down on the table if I'm typing with two hands?

Rai

I want it, just so I can do the pen spinny thing. =[

This.

Raven I just tried typing like that and felt like my finger was going to break off, haha. I always just throw it behind my ear when I'm not using.

To look cool!

The spinning thing was cool though.

This is alright best of luck to him, he seems to be getting the hype going.
But I too am a weirdo and just put the pen down like a weird person would. :poly142:

I guess the 1-2.5 seconds It takes to pick up the pen is the time saver, anything to make me faster I must have It! :poly136:

I think it's a good idea, I mean I always put the pen down to type and somehow lose it in the dark? Have to look for it again. What's wrong with me... Would be handy for iPad stylus.

I would use it, but only if I can get my hands on 10 pens and 10 rings.

Its not that weird.

Isn't that how most people hold a pen? I'm trying to hold my stylus with it resting on my index finger now and it feels really uncomfortable.

Thanks for the post Venain! Much appreciated...

This is Kelvin, the inventor of PenMoto.

I must say that I am amazed at some of the illustrations generated by members of this forum.

If I might quickly respond to a couple comments.

@Muzz - I can barely stand to wear a watch, I can appreciate your prediction. Yet, the inability to quickly go from pen to typing was a GREATER annoyance. Won't be for everyone, BUT it is detachable for freehanded use. We tested and designed hundreds of prototypes to make sure it is as lightweight and comfortable as possible.

@arrangemonk - you will never be forced to try, wear, or purchase PenMoto.

@AceAngel - Magnets do not interfere with a Wacom, I have personally spoken with Wacom's engineers about this.

SO, it isn't getting much of chance by PolyCount members.

It costs a tremendous amount of money, energy and time to develop something this far. We so very appreciative of those that have supported it and are at least willing to give something new a try!
