Nekokami, If you're still wondering about the pressure-sensitive models, thought I'd pipe in my 2 cents. Most Tablets have nice hard screens so you can apply as little or much pressure as you're comfortable with. I'd stear clear of any that doesn't have this feature, otherwise you'll scar it up pretty quickly (not to mention, it feels weird trying to write/draw on a semi-giving surface). My Compaq TC1000 has a nice hard screen and I have yet to scratch it, though the pen requires a AAAA battery. While some people like batteryless pens, I like mine due to it actually feeling substantial vs. holding a straw. A while back I had Photoshop loaded on it and fiddled around quite a bit, I also tried the Alias Wavefront version, both were a lot of fun. It's nice being able to actually draw using a pen and seeing results without having draw in one place and see your output elsewhere.

One other thing to note, if you're mainly going to be using the TabletPC for drawing, you may want to stick with one that is slate-mode vs. convertable spin-around types, which tend to be a bit bulkier than the minimalist slates. Good luck!
