So... I want a portable PC.. or laptop... or tablet.. but.. yeah.. ok let's first list the things I want to do.
I want to be able to draw on screen - the idea came from Wacom's tablet sketching.
here is the prime example :
Cintiq 12WX Product Overview
I would love this,but for that price I would hope to be detached from my PC and able to sketch at Denny's and such.
Then I thought.. let's take it a step further... I want to do my 3D stuff on it.. using Blender 3D studio and other programs like that...
So... my choices are limited... probably spend the $1000+ for the Cintiq 12WX and another $600+ for a laptop to have it plugged into..
The reason I came here is other options...
Can anyone think of a way I can use something like the Cintiq 12WX but without a laptop/PC to plugged into all the time? It would be nice to have a portable digital sketchbook and 3D modeling program....
Are Tablet PC's designed for this?
the Wacom's are top of the line in pressure sensative and stuff, and they have other tools you can buy like a Airbrush to digitally airbrush just like a real airbrush (literally it looks like your spraying it) I would love that kind of detail with my own hand to control it, I hate using a mouse to try and design stuff when it comes so much more naturally with my hand.
So I kinda want it close to that standard... otherwise for above $1000 (the cheapest tablet I can find, others are $1200+) range I might as well just get the Wacom and a "ok" Laptop to run with it.... kinda wanted "all in one" though.. if you know what I mean.. even if it only saved to microSD or something... (and yes I already wrote Wacom on this one, hoping they come out with an all in one model soon to sketch on the road and save to MicroSD slots....)
Oh and I would love to use the high tech pens and Cintiq Airbrush on anything else if possible - like a notebook PC - just as long as most of the features still exist... and it's total cost isn't that of $1500+
