Jetstream and Sketchbook Pro?

[E.J.Su]

I was wondering if anyone who picked up a Jetstream is an artist and purchased Sketchbook Pro? I'd like to know if the new pressure sensitive function in Sketchbook Pro works with Jetstream? The function apparently works with Lenovo's tablet which sports the same N-Trig digitizer, but between Lenovo and HTC, I much prefer HTC, even it's much more expensive.

I was hoping the pressure sensitivity works in Honeycomb Flyer, but it looks like Sketchbook Pro doesn't support screen resolution as low Flyer's it seems.

I'd be very grateful if someone here could test the functionality for me.

Sketchbook Pro does support pressure sensitivity. You need to turn it on it the app's prefs, and then it works. It doesn't feel like the same level of pressure sensitivity in Windows 7 tablets, but it's enough to do more natural sketching.

Thanks for your answer.
I know the pressure level was only 99 levels, far from Wacom on Windows 7, and I don't expect that at this point. I just needed something more portable than my TabletPC. I was hoping Honeycomb Flyer, but apparently Sketchbook Pro doesn't work on Flyer.

Thanks again for testing this out. I really appreciate it!

I just tested it out.

The pen does work, but is not pressure sensitive. It works as a more precise instrument than your finger.

Hopefully they update that, as it would improve the program quite a bit.

Strange, Sketchbook Pro has pressure sensitiviy on mine. Don't know about the free Sketchbook X version though.

Ah, it seems that there is a second-tier paid app. I purchased Sketchbook Mobile, not realizing that there was another paid version named Pro.

The mobile version does not have the option. Pro does (just purchased/tested).

It's worth noting that there's two versions each of the free and paid products. Could cause confusion.
