Cintiq 20"

Anybody own/try the Wacom Cintiq 20". I really thought about the 12, but the 20 is very tempting... :shock:

*bump*

I too am considering buying either the 12 or the 20 - I know people will say the 20 if you can afford it but is it worth double the 12 especially if you've never has one before?

I'm using the 21.

My suggestion is to decide for yourself whether you want portability or not. With the 12, if you have a laptop and don't mind the mess of cables, you can take it anywhere where there's a power outlet.

Not so much with the 20, but you have a bigger drawing or painting space. More express keys, bigger res, etc.

Or get the two if you can afford it and also have a video card that allows for dual displays. Set the bigger one as the primary monitor, the smaller one to contain your tool palettes.

I've been told by a source I trust that the 12" isn't worth it. Bad resolution he says.
I really want one of these, but I just can't do $2000.
