| I have a first gen Intuos and I've killed the pen, does anyone know anywhere in the UK where I might be able to get a replacement pen? Otherwise it seems I'll have to get one from the US. |

Yeah that's where I think I'm going to have to get one from but there are no uk sellers. I could have sworn wacom used to link to a site that sold legacy products but I cant find it now, and had no luck after searching for hours. Newegg seem to have some intuos1 pens still in stock but don't ship to the uk.
People with intuos2s might want to get themselves a spare pen for the future. Although saying that most people aren't going to be stupid enough to let their pen slip into their kitchen sink... |

Well I put the stylus behind my ear then went into the kitchen and the rest as they say is history, as is my pen. It did start working again but then it began misbehaving so i tried to open it up and when doing so i must have hit the circuit board inside as it doesn't do anything now  .
Fortunately my friend has lent me his intuos 2 whilst I wait for my new stylus. |
