1. Re: Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 Pen tool
A "Pen" tool refers to a tool used to draw vector lines, and does not exist in PSE.
PSE does have the "Pencil" tool which will draw hard-edged bitmap lines. It's part of the Brush tool icon set -- hold down your left mouse button to reveal the other tools:

There is text on a path, which is about as close as it gets.

Or the various shapes, and modifying them with the selection tools, but that's really clunky if you're wanting to hand-draw the equivalent of a vector shape.

There is a Freeform Pen Tool (Text on a Custom Path Tool) that has some of features that the Freeform Pen Tool in photoshop has, but not a true pen tool per se.
You can even use it to modify shape layers and stroke paths with some of the painting tools like the brush tool.
I guess it depends on how want to use it, whether you find it suitable or not.
