i am not sure of their price range, but i am pretty sure you can buy a monitor/tablet combination, which would give a lot closer feel to traditional media. i was just talking to someone the other day how i would love the idea of having a traditional drafting surface complete with parallel rule and triangles, and such that was nothing more than a huge tablet that recorded what you were doing.

i am going back to mouse for the rest of the day, because i do actually need to get work done, and richt now i am far superior with the mouse than the pen regardless of whether i am working in photoshop or 3dsmax.
