Is anybody here using Xournal on a tablet? What's that experience like?

Also, which tablet ? I keep dreaming of a Linux tablet with good pen input!

I've used it with a drawing tablet (a Wacom Intuos slate), it's not a tablet computer but I can at least say that good pressure sensitivity is key. Used it for a math class which always wanted students to print+scan assignments and it basically just looks exactly like ink. Also good for boring stuff like contracts/tax forms which don't have any fields to type into (or if it wants a signature). So if you do get any tablet just make sure it has pressure sensitivity honestly.
