Wacom Cintiq 12WX

You should look into a tablet pc...That seems closer to what you are asking for than a Wacom tablet.

thanks for the help by answering my questions. i guess ill stick to the bigger cintiq since the smaller ones arent even true portable. i hope someday wacom will design a true portable book with built in photoshop or painter or something of that kind. that day will be the day i can die happy...but i gotta use it first LOL

Yes, just to clarify though. The Device itself is portable, like a laptop. In fact I usually carry mine along with my laptop in a case designed for two laptops. What I meant by not being portable is that you will NOT be able to use it on a bus or plane because it requires AC power.

ive got a laptop so eh portable enough right?

is this portable? like have photoshop at the palm of your hands and draw in the bus or something? i dream of a day when that is available....

Not really portable. Requires AC power supply and connection to laptop or desktop computer via provided converter box.

The way I'm going I'll only afford this when it's already only 100 bucks and they made a 3D one... a.k.a in 20 years

after reading the comments it seems everyone is in agreement on how friggin awesome this thing is! I HAVE to get one. but damn $999 is a bitch thats hard to slap =(

My dad's friend works at the company Wacom, so maybe I can get it for less money. I can't wait to get it! =]

Just got one of these babies, if you can ever afford it, effing buy it! A major boost in creativity that screams for attention and its pure joy to experiment with. Been a designer for 13 years and this was by far the best buy in my career. Replace the long dvi and usb cables to 0.5m versions, tape them together and you got yourself a far more portable cintiq to go with your macbook pro.

This badass tablet is a real productivity rocket!
