Well, phooey. What's the point of having a high-priced Wacom screen on there if nothing can use it? They might as well have used a simple touch-sensitive screen. (Other than the fact that the Wacom doesn't register hand pressure or other stray bumps, which are kind of a nuisance on ordinary touch-sensitive screens, but I don't know as the difference would be worth hundreds of US$ or Euros or whatever.)

iRex has said they would eventually get the pressure sensitivity working, but I have to wonder what they mean by that. I know not everyone wants to sketch on these things, but a picture of someone sketching a diagram is in their promotional material.

I guess I'll ask if pressure sensitivity access will ever be part of the SDK or whatever. I'll probably get an answer like, "Yes, we plan to support this in the future."
