PenMoto
polycounter lvl 12
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.

that would be a huge timesaver!
WUT
How, exactly, are you holding your pen?
That's fucking crazy as hell.
Please don't assume that's me, lol.
This.
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 would use it, but only if I can get my hands on 10 pens and 10 rings.
Its not that weird.
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!
