Now that is out the way I have to say that the opening view of this post on this smart device being a 'scanner' is a little ignorant - this is not a scanner it is effectively making a duplicate of your drawing so you draw on paper and at the same time you get a digital version which you can open in Illustrator or Photoshop and manipulate. You can also save out in many file formats (JPG, BMP, TIFF, PNG, SVG and PDF) from the Inkling software and then once in the Adobe apps you can save out in most of the other formats like .EPS, .AI, .PSD etc.
The pen has 1024 pressure sensitivity and I find it to be a great little device - no wires, no need for a tablet just the pen and receiver and whatever paper you are drawing on.
You get 5 refills and one cart in the pen so you have enough for a few weeks/months depending on how much you draw so the carts are not made by Wacom :)

The cartridges are also cheap - made in Switzerland - one place I found some on are here:
