Wacom Pro Pen 3D
Just to say I think it's a real shame that Wacom no longer make the Pro Pen 3D, it's certainly no longer available in the UK and Europe and hasn't been for some time. I've been using this pen now for several years and own a couple of them, but recently I was looking for another and just couldn't find one anywhere. The regular Pro Pen 2 just isn't the same – I find that there's movement in the nib of the Pro Pen 2 which makes it feel a bit cheap and nasty in comparison. Naturally I don't understand the differences in the construction of the 2 pens, but I find that with the Pro Pen 3D the nib has always felt very rigid just as you would expect with a real pen or marker, but the nibs on the Pro Pen 2 wobbly enough to make it feel not good. I have a few Pro Pen 2s so I know it's the design of the pen itself and not just one particular pen, maybe it has something to do with having an eraser at the end. I don't know, I just wish that Wacom would either bring back the Pro Pen 3D or improve the construction quality of the standard Intuos Pro pen.
Would also be good if Wacom still made the smooth texture sheet for the large Intuos Pro, but that's another product that just isn't available any more.

Answering my own post here … but just out of curiosity I took one of my Pro Pen 2s and stuck some tape over the eraser button forcing it to be permanently pressed down and it seems to eliminate any extra movement and travel in the nib making it feel rigid and much more pleasant to use, just like the Pro Pen 3D.
