James: Interesting, I've had "sticky cursor" problems with the Kurta using mouse emulation in 3DS. Also, in AA Pro and several other programs, I have trouble getting the cursor to all corners of the screen – it's like there's a "wall" keeping me from moving the cursor past a certain horizontal or vertical line. I'll have to play with the configuration options a bit more. By "4.1 tablet standard", I assume you mean an ADI driver interface for AA Pro and 3DS? You're right, AA Pro has the capability to talk to other devices via input device drivers (.IDR files), but I don't know that any digitizer makers have written any of these yet. I wonder what the advantages of an .IDR driver would be, and why Autodesk didn't stick with the already well-known ADI? – Mark M.
