Probably not too useful for pro work but you know you want one.

I've heard the vectors look pretty distorted. I'm hoping this is just from someone who has no idea how to use one.

I must say that looks pretty interesting. I really wouldn't mind trying it out or even properly using it.

I'm guessiing by the fleeting look of it you can actually manipulate and slightly edit the pic when its on the computer? looks good.

Wow! Be great for guys like me who don't have a scanner but would love to post his artwork on the net. I wonder if it can upload colored pictures?

If this thing takes off it may open up a new line of product in digital pressure sensitive art pens. I can see them stemming out a whole set of differently numbered pens just like in traditional art kits.

This is where technology works with craft. I just never made the leap from pen and paper to tablet. I just use mine to color and edit stuff with. But this thing makes me think that I can continue that route and still be able to use technology to enhance my work.

Wow. I already do my coloring digitally. Now I can do my inking digitally as well? What a wonderful idea.

Of course my second thought in these matters is always "How much?" The Inkling lists for $199, which I suppose is reasonable for new tech.
