A short while back I posted my admiration for this here device…

The price of the device ($3000 and up) is quite steep but, based on the video, I was shocked by how beautiful and functional, especially to those who are artists, the device appeared to be.

Well, the device has not been offered for review and people are, of course, reviewing it…

I have to say as someone who loves tech and especially tech innovation, this device is really exciting.

Is it exciting enough to spend that amount of money getting it?

Not really.  At least not for me.  Though I have worked in the field of comic book art, I’m more of a writer these days and, as tempting a product as this is, the price tag on this is a little too out of my league for something to “play” around with.

On the other hand, this is the first iteration of this product and it wouldn’t surprise me that future versions are cheaper and (gulp) better.  Apple, take note!
