Surface Pro Pen pressure sensitivity is not working in photoshop CS6.

The surface pro was mentioned on the ImagineFX magazine before its release, surely it grabbed the attention of lots of artists. I've been wanting to pick one up to use as an art tool too. But the promise and the delay of this fix has taken so long since the surface release that i am starting to consider to forget buying it and go for a cintiq 13hd,  since its pretty much the same price. If this fix takes so long what are the chances apple will nab the graphic artist community with a working tablet. 

Also the delay makes me fear that some higher authority in ms might just say "stop working on the fix and we'll release it on the new model"

'Soon" is a four letter word in this thread, heh.

For those who haven't bought yet, don't until you actually see the drivers released and successful.  Zero point in doing so based on assurances only slightly less vague than we had months ago.  I definitely appreciate that they're telling us they're actively working on it and that it's their top priority and in beta, but there've been words before.

I'm joining this discussion because I bought a Surface Pro, and I would like to use Photoshop and Zbrush on it. The tablet is wonderful and I like it, but without the pressure option for a graphist, you loose a lot of interest compared to other tablets.

I hope you'll come back soon with news for a public beta test of the drivers.

We'll keep pushing you to give us as soon as possible the solution we're waiting ^^

Having read this entire thread long ago, and checking in daily, I could say even every 2 hours to see if there's any news, the little hope I had in a product I don't even own is vanishing. Seriously, I was so hyped up about buying this device, it was my perfect mobile workstation (ignoring the lack of apps and the short battery, I wanted the performance + the usability of the Adobe Design Premium CS with pressure sensibility). Now, I'm still compelled to buying it. However, what was once to me a must buy, is now an alternative, and what was an alternative to others, is now a past reminder of a product that could have had changed the way we do things.

I hadn't seen a better performance vs. price ratio in a similar product. The Samsung ATIV Smart PC, the Asus Taichi, I can't really compare them to this one. They're either a little more expensive for the same features, and/or they suffer from less features, worse build quality, and others.

I'd even buy it right now, if Microsoft updated more on this issue. Like, mentioning an approximate date, or, on a more possible position, releasing beta drivers (as asked for in a post above). If I heard more about the driver fix, I'd buy it without doubting, and I'm sure many others, when confirmed on the fix, would buy it too.
