Nice - but i think touch sensitivity is important.

Cintiq....my dream. I have seen that there is a new model in Europe, 12" display with the same characteristic than it's big brother, making it more affordable. I'm waiting it to be available in Hong Kong to try it. Does one of you have already put his finger on it?

Its good but you can use a Cintiq as a monitor as well (i mean the larger Cintiq - not this one).

Yes, exactly this one. It seems to be a little bit small so it's why i want to try it first. Anyway, the home made "Cintiq" is an excellent trick.

I guess they need some kind of software for that, right? Or is it just connecting the wii to the PC?

The new cintiq looks like a good option. I have the 21ux and love it for the workflow it allows, but it's only a year old and already the screen is showing heavy wear from the the stylus - I don't think it can be fixed.

A lot depends on how much speed you need for brush work - but I found it worth it.

The 12WX can be used as a second monitor (as it says here) - although its small. Nice.
