WACOM showed off a new digital eraser for Wacom-enabled screens called the WACOM Digital Eraser KG1. They have quietly been showing this off to people at trade shows in the Asia Pacific region, such as Touch Taiwan and other events in Tokyo. It is small, and the body is red, and the eraser part is white. Nothing needs to be replaced, and it will last forever.

When WACOM showed Good e-Reader their product, they said it aimed primarily at the E INK digital notebook market. Most pens with these digital notebooks do not have an eraser at the top; only the premium pens do, and they often cost over $100.00. The WACM KG1 solves this problem by allowing users to erase mistakes with a dedicated eraser.

There is no word on availability, price, or when it will come out. I got the feeling that it should ship sometime in 2025.
