Default New tablet on the way

I just ordered this from Newegg: http://www.toshibadirect.com/td/b2c/...&seg=HHO&sel=1

(Upgrades from base: 512 MB RAM, Wifi)

The M200/M205 is generally considered the best convertable tablet made. I'm glad I sold my laptop early enough so I didn't have to spend the full $1900 on it. You can even play Quake 3 on it...it has a Geforce FX 5200Go. Might even handle UT2k4. Best part is that it should also function like a Wacom tablet which means:

1. Moving the stylus slightly above the screen moves the mouse.
2. Pressing down lightly registers as a light stroke in Photoshop (or a click).
3. Pressing down hard registers as a darker stroke (or a click).
4. You can rest your hand on the screen and use the stylus at the same time, and given that the stylus works though magnetics, only it would be recognized.
5. A button on the stylus can make a tap a right-click when pressed, so one-handed mousing.
6. No wrist destruction from a mouse or trackpad.

Psyched. Overnight shipping from Newegg but I ordered at night so it'll probably ship tomorrow.
