The Erasing UltraPen lets you erase as you would with a real eraser -- the harder you press, the more it erases -- and offers up to 256 levels of pressure. For software that's not eraser-aware, the $89.99 device allows you to select and delete text or cells with one stroke. Also available are the WideBody UltraPen With Pencil ($125) and the DuoSwitch UltraPen ($125), which meets multiple-mouse-button standards in Windows and Unix OSes.
Wacom's latest graphics tablets include the ArtPad II with Erasing UltraPen ($174.99), ArtZ II 6 8 with Erasing UltraPen ($389.99), ArtZ II 12 12 with Erasing UltraPen ($539.99), ArtZ II 12 18 with Erasing UltraPen ($869.99), and ArtZ II 18 25 with Erasing UltraPen ($2449.99).
