I haven't really seen many other options that include a pressure-sensitive touchscreen. There might be some odd Android tabs out with it but art programs are generally terrible on Android (probably because artists hate the idea of sharing a device with engineers).

Also if your couch is a thousand USD it had better be a power reclining sectional or something.

Yeah, I own an Asus Transformer but I really can't suggest it for your purposes. Solid for anyone looking for an average tablet at a good price, however. (And it'll drop soon due to the new transformer coming around, as well)

I'm taking a look at this Photoshop Touch app thing they announced earlier this month for the Android. It looked like it might do the trick for letting me sketch something on the tablet, then export it to PDF and touch it up on a desktop. Android tablets are like 200-500 tops, which would be nice.

Unfortunately, looks like you can only export images to THE ADOBE CREATIVE CLOUD™ and you need to pay a monthly fee for that (which will ratchet up the cost of doing such a thing for a year or so well into Might As Well Get The EP121 territory). Plus, well, yes, the touch screen on the Android is not really built for that. It's not pressure-sensitive or generally thin and responsive enough to be sketching on.

It feels like there should be some older and cheaper Wacomish thing that can just run Photoshop without being a piece of shit, but I guess tablets are only now really starting to get interesting.

Also if you haven't sat on a thousand dollar couch you have not yet truly Taken A Load Off

They conform perfectly to your cheeks, melt you into the fabric until you and your couch are but one.

THE COUCH THAT HUNGERS

I've sat on pretty much every couch. I almost paid $4000 for a custom full-leather, but when you get right down to it the returns on a couch are pretty diminishing. A $4000 couch is inarguably more comfortable than a $700 one, but only like... a hundred dollars more comfortable, not $3300.

Where were we? Oh right, basically your conundrum I that pressure-sensitive pads that are also screens are inherently pretty expensive, so unless you can really invest in something like that I'd say learn to appreciate a nice Bamboo.

Brentai's ass demands tasteful and refined couches.

As you guys type this, I am sitting on a couch my grandmother paid $200 for new. I think my butt is sad now.

My butt didn't know what it was missing! Now all I can think about is "This seat can be $3,800 more comfortable!"

Mothra:

Another one. Might be what you're looking for. This is just a reference page, not a shopping page. Might be hard to find but I see a few on Amazon.

Anybody know anybody who's willing to rent a room in or buy a brand new (built this September) mobile home in San Juan Capistrano, OC, California? My parents are moving and need to either sell it off or cover their mortgage. Their awkward position means rates/prices are probably pretty reasonable (for OC).

Ended up caving and getting the EP121 for the full GRAND. I have not dropped that caliber of cabbage on anything since I had to get my front axle fixed but holy fuck guys

this tablet

no regrets

I'm going to get my mom one of these balla custom bamboo-wood iPhone cases for Christmas. She's into nature and loons and such, and I've found a few decent pictures to adorn the back, but I'm wondering if anyone has any images saved somewhere that might look good on one of these.

It can only do one color - black - so anything silhouetted or easily-made-silhouetted-with-photoshop's-color-overlay would be what I'm looking for. Right now I've got this:

Honestly, I'd say you're set.

Yeah, that looks pretty sweet as it is.
