New stuff from 3Dconnexion

Rick Lando, from 3Dconnexion, emailed me the other day to let me know that they’ve improved their product line. Naturally, the first thing I though of was "can I get one to try out?" Rick assures me that I can. So, as soon as I get my greasy hands (ok, that was a lie. I sit behind a desk all day not getting dirty) on one and try it out, I’ll let you know if it’s worth the money. For the time being, you can read about 3Dconnexion’s improvements here. Oh, by the way, they dropped the price of the SpacePilot by $100!

Jai,
I'm sorry to hear that, that just doesn't seem fair. I'll be sure to find out why and mention it in my review...once they send me the hardware!

One of these just happened to be at my door today and, naturally, I had to install the software and try it out right away. To my disappointment, the 3Dconnexsion software will not work with Solidworks educational version, but will work with Inventor student version. I called the company and they verified this with me.

About Jeff's Tool Shed

While most of what I write will be about SolidWorks, or partner products, from time to time I've been known to go off on random rants about whatever crosses my mind.

Legal B.S.: The thoughts, opinions and commentary posted on Jeff's Tool Shed are mine and mine only. I speak only for myself and no other person(s) or entities, real or imagined.

To satisfy (I hope) FTC disclosure rules: I am provided with non-commercially licensed software and hardware for review by many companies, including Dassault Systemes. (Duh, this is a review blog) While reviewing said software and hardware, I am in contact with employees of the companies providing products involved and, occasionally, asked for feedback (again, it is a review blog). I am not compensated for any of this. DS SolidWorks Corporation has paid for my travel, accommodations, and some meals for various user group events including SolidWorks World.
