Another quick (which I'm sure more will come to light as another discussion on Graphics and Pen Tablets develops).

I think it is important for owners of and Xara users thinking of buying a tablet, to know that Xara will quickly be developing the areas for tablets currently not supported:

xara does not support the tilt and pitch features of the upper end wacoms, it just supports basic pressure sensitivity; I do not currently sketch in xara because I think there are far better programs for this
I mean c'mon, afterall - creations on tablets are VECTORS!!!!
