pitchblack70 0 Posted February 9, 2014 Oh - that'd be wonderful... thanks!! I know there's been tons of back and forth. Given the size of the investment, I'm looking to make the right choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SurfaceProArtist 0 Posted April 20, 2014 I just found an app called Virtual Tablet for both Windows and Android that works surprisingly well. I found very little lag and pen pressure was communicated to Manga Studio and Sketchbook Pro. Unfortunately, Photoshop isn't supported. For only a couple bucks, it's definitely worth a shot.

pitchblack70 0 Posted April 20, 2014 Hey, thanks for remembering me and my post! Admittedly - while still in the market - I'm also still wavering back and forth as to my ultimate hardware purchase. Reason being (besides the price) that nothing seems to fit *all* the criteria I'm looking for. The Surface Pro looks best overall, but I can't help but wish the screen size was bigger for things such as Zbrush. The larger hybrids have their own issues. Sony Flip's N Trig doesn't work on Zbrush. And the Lenovo Yoga - despite being just the right size - worries me. I can just imagine the keys being an issue over time. And my husband recently bought a Lenovo laptop. It's been a headache, both trackpad and software, since Day One. Which makes me leery of buying one for myself... even if it's a different model. I keep HOPING that Surface will come out with a bigger screen, or a new Tablet will come onto the market that really fits my wish list. But this app is a promising start that things may be heading in the right direction for us artists... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SurfaceProArtist 0 Posted April 20, 2014 The Thinkpad Yoga is a very nice machine; in tablet mode I've been using it alongside a Microsoft Wedge bluetooth keyboard and Logitech mouse and it's working out great. There's no question each device requires a bit of a compromise; that's why I'm still such a fan of the original Surface Pro. If you can grab one around $500, you'll get plenty of productivity out of it while waiting for the larger screened next generation of tablets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
