Ink and Slide have now officially landed in Germany –  at the special price of 199 US dollars. The pressure-sensitive Ink stylus and the digital Slide ruler, which Adobe presented in June, can be ordered in Germany.

The two tools work with iPad apps such as Illustrator Line, Illustrator Draw, Photoshop Sketch, and Brush CC – and are intended to enable more precise input. The tip of the aluminium stylus is finer than those of ordinary input devices. When placed on the tablet display, the 10 cm Slide ruler makes a guide line visible. The gadgets are connected to an iPad via Bluetooth 4.0. And in order to make full use of the devices, a CC account is required.
