Evernote giving away Wacom Bamboo Pen tablets to three lucky tweeters
If you’re on Twitter and want to win a Wacom Bamboo Pen tablet to enjoy the wonderful inking experience of Evernote, there’s a contest for you. And for those of you who aren’t sure you’d like that experience, the Evernote Blogcast has a short write-up and YouTube demo to convince you.
The Wacom Bamboo Pen is a pen-only tablet, no touch input like on my Bamboo, though I’m pretty much pen-only on mine anyway. I do pretty well with the coordination even though I’m used to on-screen pen input on a larger surface. Fair warning: connecting to a Wacom Penabled Tablet PC, though possible, is problematic due to the conflicting drivers. But if you want to add pen input to a notebook, netbook or desktop, the Wacom Bamboo Pen should work just fine.
If you want a shot at one, just follow @evernote and @wacom on Twitter and send a public tweet containing the hashtag #evernotewacom and you’ll be entered. Check out the Evernote Blogcast for more details.

Again, jelousy from the European readers as the giveaway is only applicable to US and Canada ;)

This is kind of a weird giveway since the pen input in evernote is so limited… The video basically shows you the full extent of what you can do, but the biggest gripe is not being able to mix ink and text notes.
