    Default need explanation on dual switch wacom UP811E

    I would love it if someone could explain how many functions can be mapped to the buttons on the wacom up811e. Im used to my desktop intuos 3 which has the pen click, the eraser, and a switch on the side that allows for two more functions. When wacom lists the Up811e as a pen with dual switch... Do they mean the same as a regular intuos or an extra switch? I guess im hoping to find a pen with the most buttons that will work with a levono x201 tablet...Any help is appreciated

    I'm pretty sure the UD technology that Penabled is based on only supports a tip, eraser, and two programmable buttons.
    I don't think you'll find a Penabled pen with more than that.

    Thanks for the fast feedback. I got two more questions if you have time. Im looking at a Lenovo x201 tablet... It sounds that i may be able to configure the tablet buttons using the tablet buttons settings tab~ im hoping this is the case? also, any reccomendations for a pen for lenovo? As mentioned the more buttons the better
    thank you

    The Axiotron Studio Pen is the best. it is basically a Intuos pen that works on the Tablet PC frequency.

    You can get it cheap here ==> axiotron studio pen items - Get great deals on Computers Networking, axiotron pen items on eBay.com!. for $35 you get a very good pen.

    It has the pen tip (it comes with extra nibs as well), the eraser, and has two buttons on the side. You can program the sensitivity, and what the individual buttons do.

    Yes, the side button(s) on a Wacom Penabled pens are programmable.
    The X201t will come with a slim pen with nib, eraser, and side button(s).
    I say "side button(s)" because I can't find written documentation if it is one or two but from pictures it definitely has at least one side button.
    I'm positive one of our members in the Lenovo section could confirm how many there are.
