DPT-S1 only allows the marker tool for text, if it's a scanned image you can't use the marker. Than you have to use the pencil. This goes for every device of this kind (Surface PRO, Sony Vaio Tab 11...). You can test it with the Adobe Acrobat Reader on your PC: If it doesn't allow marking, the Sony etc. can't do it, too.

If you need the device now, buy it NOW! Simple as that. I waited far too long to buy it and I paid a whopping 1300,- Euro incl. express shipping from the US at a time when it was NOT available via BHV. And I still don't regret it.

Only issue: The front bezel of the device shows signs of use after ~ 1 year of usage.
