The only device I've ever used with an active digitizer embedded into the device was my OQO 01+. LOVED it... but I'll be damned if it didn't also show my pen press too. It was not favorable in that one regard, imho.

Works best as a Wacom tablet - hands down. But with the OQO, and to a much lesser extent but still visible on the Wacom Cintiq, the fact that my pen would slightly distort the image(s) bothers me.
