My question does not relate to Photoshop, but this appears to be the forum where Wacom tablets are most frequently discussed, so I hope someone can help me out.
I have carpal tunnel syndrome, and my ability to use a keyboard is very limited. I currently depend on speech recognition software for computer input, but it has significant limitations, and I am interested in trying out a tablet as an alternate input method.
My income is limited, and I don’t know whether the tablet will even prove to be useful, so I would like to buy a used one if I can. I see that discontinued models sell for much less than current ones, but I can’t find any information about how they differ. Thus I can’t make an informed decision about which if any of them would meet my needs.
Can anyone refer me to a source of information about Wacom’s discontinued models? In particular, I need information about their compatibility with handwriting recognition in Microsoft Office, and any characteristics which might make them work less well for handwriting recognition than current models.
