Thanks for the info. Was about to get one soon. From the review I saw it had a ton of pros and barely any cons. I think the user did say that it had problems in mac os vs windows 7 though. Are you running on a Mac? Are you using multiple monitors?

From the specs alone, it shouldn't be having that problem.

These specs are from the review. I'm unsure which Wacom tablet they used for comparison.

Specifications: (Note that these are GREATER than Wacom's specs)
10x6.25" Working Area
1024 pressure levels
4000 LPI resolution
200 (report rate)

Specifications for Wacom's Pen Tablet:
5.8 X 3.6" working area
512 Pressure levels
1270 LPI resolution
133 (report rate)

There are instances where it works just as well but I found it really hard to do precise things like adding keyframes to audio tracks in Final Cut, the cursor is really jittery when you try to move it slowly so it would always add a keyframe and then move the levels up or down at the same time which was annoying enough for me to just pay the extra money for the Wacom (which I think has been worth it)

Painter has a recording feature, which will record the whole illustration session and you can export it out as a high resolution QuickTime.
