As for the battery I have rechargeable ones with a usb battery charger so it's kinda moot for me.
In my opinion that's a great idea, any thoughts on this ppy? Maybe some updates :3 ?

@topic: I haven't checked the shipping rates, but I think it may still be cheaper than Wacoms(40$ = 130PLN, brand new Wacom Bamboo is 220PLN)
I' don't plan on buying it myself, but I know someone who does.
I like this idea.
And now I'm used to all the advantages the wacom bamboo has to offer like sensitivity in photoshop. I don't think I could get used to something different.
I still think it's totally cool and would sell well.
No but really the sound of it is awesome and i need a new graphic tablet ever since my Bamboo Connect
I'd probably buy one of these if my current tablet suddenly broke or something.

So probably not.

As for the battery I have rechargeable ones with a usb battery charger so it's kinda moot for me.
I'd like to buy one of these but let me suggest the following stuffs:
- - Pen and tablet-surface should not scratch when in contact, so you can lie down without losing smoothness in motion
- Along with that, the driver would have to allow disabling the click on pentip / letting us as the users adjust what a tap does
Not sure this topic is even still relevant but oh well.
For one I am fairly certain that a large majority of the people saying/voting yes have only the intentions of having one. I would be incredibly surprised were even half of them to actually buy one.
Second there are several flaws to this including size, batteries, and pressure sensitivity that while not really fatal will be a big deal to most people.
Third you stated that the intention was to make it cheaply available to everyone. With this comes at the cost of certain elements in a tablet people want for more than just the purpose of osu!. If you can pay a few more dollars and get one with many more capabilities then you probably will.
Fourth, from what you said the initial investment is large indeed. If the amount of units you'll have to acquire are equally large then you'll have many headaches dealing with holding onto your stock, and let's not even get into the tech support/malfunctioning products part. Without the possibility of profit to aid osu! in some way this will just drag it down rather than help. On top of that, these are not an easy sell really, I don't think the rate of sales on them would be fast.
Fifth there is a lot you have not stated that we need to know to really help in a decision such as how many units and how much of an initial investment it is.
Way I see it from everything is that it's not necessarily the best investment for this situation. Were the company to for instance offer a tricked out for osu! styled tablet that you would simply point users to and for each one purchased you received a sort of finders fee (less than you could get from buying them in bulk and holding the burden but without any burden whatsoever) for selling their tablets for them then I would greatly encourage it as long as the quality held up.
One unlikely possibility to negate the risk would be to have the users actually commit to buying one before you order them. This is highly unlikely to work but it is plausible. Have everyone who really wants one to essentially order a ticket (like a pre-order but paid in full, not just $5 down) from you for the tablet. If you meet the mark for how many you need to get sold to order them by a certain date then go with it, if not return the money and walk away without any loss. But again I can't see people actually willing to commit like this.
Other than that the only suggestion I would have because I personally really like the idea of the osu! tablet as an item would be to follow in the footsteps of game consoles like xbox, wii, ps3. If there is a way you can get for a slightly higher price a much lower stock then you can for instance get let's say 10 25 50 100 depending on the intentions. Deck those tablets out and make em gorgeous, none of that "Oh it has pippi in the corner, that makes it an osu! tablet" bs, deck that thing out. Then make them limited stock/edition (and/or one time only) with a certain way to get them. Could be as simple as simple as purchasing them in the osu! store or perhaps as giveaways to 10 random people that buy supporter during the month or whatever. The point being there are many largely devoted and obsessed users on osu! that would kill for say 1 of 10 ever made osu! tablets and would go to great lengths to get one, as well there are a lot of casual people who would throw a couple bucks for supporter for a chance to get one, but very few who would pay a large sum for something average/sub-par that everyone has.
tl;dr because I already know you won't read all of what I said or probably even half - High risk + low profit = bad investment. You can do better, get a better situation or better price. You hold ALL of the cards in this particular one and lose nothing from walking away. Take advantage of that.

Didn't know about the poll 'till now. However, I would buy one EVEN if only to have one. Plus you can't really go wrong for $35 ^^

Pretty much this. I've already invested in a Bamboo tablet and it seems like this tablet is pretty much the same if not worse than a Wacom.Kaoru wrote:

Just noticed this poll now, lol. Anyhow, i have a few friends i would buy a tablet for, and if this is cheap i would definitely buy it for them as a present. The only thing thats stopping them (or me) from buying a wacom is the price or urgency in having a tablet.
Yes i have a tablet already (which i only use for osu!) and im sure people will be interested in buying a osu!tablet if its their first tablet considering how relatively more cheaper it is than a wacom. I am concerned about the battery pen tho.

This would actually make me want to try out a tablet for osu!, even if I don't end up using it lots (because I end up liking the mouse better?), it'll be nice to have as a collectable even. (not a big fan of buying shirts hehe)
So yes, I would love to order one if you make them available!
Another suggestion that might help you sell them is to give a supporter tag for a month or two with the purchase maybe? You never know, it might sell more that way.. People like bonuses from stuff they buy

This would be awesome but then again, I play CTB O.O
from my perspective, majority of people wont fond of that for the cause of the pen with battery 
though a specific log of Osu! seem to be splendid :3

I have been in contact with a tablet manufacturer, and it would seem it may be possible to make osu!-branded tablet. It would be an 8x5" tablet with a custom osu! design, and I'd be aiming to sell it for the cheapest feasibly possible (currently looking to be about $35-40 + shipping). I have already tested one and the performance is on-par with cheaper wacom tablets I have used, with the only major difference being a battery operated pen. After a week of use I haven't seen this as a problem, both considering weight (single AAA battery) and battery life (4,000 hours continuous use). Spare nibs would also be included for the hardcore players.
The biggest issue is that in order to get them at such a cheap price, I will need to order in bulk. I am tentative to take up such an investment unless I know there are enough people that would be interested in buying one of these devices, so please use this thread to let me know. If possible, share it with others that you think would be interested, too!
Keep in mind this would likely be the cheapest tablet you can buy in many regions of the world, even after shipping. That is my aim, anyway.
hmm i'm too late to vote an yes
I'm interested in this plan since my wacom tablet is pratically broken after years of use. and it's the high price that hinders me from buying a new one.
will keep an eye on how is this going

Hmm... To be completely, 100% honest, I'd need an opinion from a pro player who tried it out before I would consider going through the hassle of buying one (I would likely have to use a prepaid Visa card, which requires going through the "joys" of downtown to get ATM).
Yeah, cause it's more fun to play with one extra osu! tablet and i want to support that game. (:
I'm thinking that the OWC physical prize is the tablets and when they are given out to the winners is when ppy will introduce them. Wishful thinking! I would be kind of sad though since I already spent most of my money on holiday shopping and wouldn't have much to spare till january.
Need beta testing from all range of players who use tablet and those who don't use. From Top tablet player to semi-pro player to beginner, from hovering and from touching to tapping. Most beginner wouldn't even know tablet exist if din see other players use or someone tells them.
Battery or no battery, need to know if it is much more easier to control and move for long hours and more comfy than normal tablet.
Btw, What is the length of lift-off detection for the pen and tablet before it can't detect ? and What is the battery for ?

Has any progress been made on this? Like custom text engraving/printing on the tablet, customizable lpi (if that's even possible), different pens etc?
I would SO want 1!!! I've been trying to get a cheap tablet instead of a mouse to play Osu! and for Digital art purposes
without any thought!
For mainly 3 reasons:
1. For the heck of it
2. For supporting Osu!
3. For having a not-derping tablet :3

Yes, I would. o3o
Since I only use my current Bamboo Splash for Osu!, if something were to happen to it, this would be a cheap replacement that gives the same performance. I would certainly do such a thing.
Depends on the quality :>
Question : When does it release? Never heard any progress.
1. Send a prototype to Cookiezi
2. He posts a video of him playing with it
3. Everyone ditches his/her intuos and bamboos

how i never see'd thised
Personally I would say no since I got my Bamboo unless it breaks then yes!
If I was still using mouse then sure since it's made for osu! it would make the game more immersive like other games with special controllers. Probably most appealing to newer players who want to go tablet. Hope all goes well if it's produced.

As long as the quality is not at all (much?) less than Bamboo Pen, I'd definitely buy it.
It better the survive brutal use from osu!
Bamboo tablets can easily get scratchy and dull. Their pen isn't the best.

i would buy it if the pen's sensor was very very close to the pen's tip, unlike bamboo's pens where the sensor is like an inch up the pen
Because of how my stupid country works I think unless this is under 25 dollars it's gonna be more expensive than a Wacom.
Just wanted to point out Argentina is fucking weird.

Seems like a very good offer, would buy it if I didn't alrdy have one ~.~
I think vinyl stickers to use on the wacon tablets (and wherever the person wants) would be better than that.
Definitely would buy.

No - but if you use it roughly or put too much pressure on the nib, it will eventually wear down, as a rock does in a river.D o r o r o wrote:

If it were just for the purpose of playing OSU, I would consider it, but if it could do other things such as draw then I would very likely buy one.

Well The Microsoft Surface Pro is out and it's amazingly a solid device...
Price wise I'm a bit bent.
40$-100$ (shipping) is 1/5 of the Surface Tablet so by a very very very narrow margin I'm thinking yes.
I would pay 500-600$ for the surface but if it's limited to osu after shipping I'm not planning to spend more than 80-100$

Heck yes. I'm mostly going for it because of the amazing price and I'm in need of one for drawing. 
Even though I already own a tablet I would buy one if it had anything related to osu on it. Its all I use it for anyways If only I could draw 
If only I could draw This one isn't for drawing.

If I can use the tablet on my metal table, then I'd buy it. Not sure if it's just specific tablets, or all tablets, but with my tablet (VisTablet PenPad), pen input acts really weird if I try to use the tablet sitting on-top of a painted metal table.
so you say that the osu tablet may have a performance as good as the wacom bamboo? or better than it? 
Is this tablet still being developed or going to be released at all? Thinking of buying a tablet and would like to just buy this considering I would pretty much only use it for osu.
I'd definately buy one :O
Pretty much not, I prefer the way I have it currently :>
I already have a tablet, but if it's really cheap and my tablet should ( I hope it's not today ) broke someday, why not.
That would be great.
That would be great.
I hope this is still being worked on. I love having osu! related stuff, but there just isnt much out there.
Oh this would be great!
Maybe then I would switch to a tablet player...
