I am for sure picking one up, I have used an intuos for years but I still prefer the feel of pen and ink. I wonder what the quality of the pen is since you have to use the actual pen tool, though I dont think it would deter me. I have boxes of pricey pens but I still find myself sketching the most with a $0.10 bic pen.
