For a few years now, Adobe’s been teasing its followers about Project Mighty (http://www.macworld.com/article/2038279/hands-on-adobes-mighty-and-napoleon-drawing-hardware-for-the-ipad.html), its iPad stylus and ruler prototypes. The day has finally come: Those prototypes have graduated to full-fledged products in the form of Adobe Ink and Slide (http://www.adobe.com/go/inkandslide), available in the United States for $200. The accessories are also paired with two new iPad apps from the company: Adobe Line and Sketch (https://www.adobe.com/creativecloud/catalog/mobile.html).</p><h2>Down to details: stylus and ruler, together</h2>

It’s hard to talk about Adobe’s latest accessory offering without first acknowledging its price: At over $100, The Ink and Slide has the highest price tag we’ve seen in the iOS stylus market. To be fair, that’s partly a result of Adobe packaging the Ink stylus and Slide ruler together—you can’t buy them separately. Which is a shame, because while Ink stylus is a pretty good iOS pen, it’s not the best in its class; the Slide ruler, however, is the kind of unique accessory I suspect many people will want.</p><p class="jumpTag"><a href="/article/2158120/adobe-brings-new-life-to-the-ipad-stylus-market-with-ink-and-slide.html#jump">To read this article in full or to leave a comment, please click here[/url]</p></section></article>
