Surface Pro Pen pressure sensitivity is not working in photoshop CS6. Was anyone able to get their surface pro to use the pen pressure sensitivity? In my photoshop settings when i turn on Pen Pressure for brush settings i see a yellow exclamation mark next to each settings which has to do with pen pressure. If anyone knows how to solve this problem please let me know.

    This issue will be fixed just in time for Creative Cloud to kill off CS6!

    I am still wary on Bluetooth. From the constant pairing to varying battery life and connectivity issues in congested wireless areas, I prefer the EMR tech Wacom has.

    Pretty clear what's happening now. Adobe just announced a new Bluetooth stylus for ipad. No doubt adobe has been hindering whatever development is occurring for the Surface Pro in order to have their product win out. That coupled with their new subscription price plan clearly indicates they are moving away from the PC.

    This makes no sense.  Adobe has nothing to do with Wintab not working on the Surface, nor are they the only company relying on wintab for pressure sensitivity.

    Still amongst the ones holding onto a Surface Pro and wanting the driver implementation of Wintab. It can't take this long to figure out the newer Wacom 9002 chip that is used.

    I am losing faith in Microsoft's word. I believed like: "oh, they confirmed they were working on it, and even said they had beta drivers, so, it must be true! They'd look bad if they lied, wouldn't they?"

    Now, I ask, does Microsoft even care about how they look towards a minimal group in their customer share? I'd hope so. If only their words could be verified, and they posted more often, it'd be great. More than great, actually (I'd honestly love to hear a "The implementation is X percent done, it will be published in Y from now approximately".

    When I hear any similar words, then I will blindly buy a Surface Pro… until now, I shall wait uneasily as the gap between Haswell's release appears (and it'd be awful to wait EVEN MORE, I'm already going insane, I think I'll be a maniac by the next-gen of tablets, that is, if there IS a next-gen of tablets).

    TL;DR: Release the drivers, Microsoft, please… *sobs* … :(
