No offense, but this looks extremely unpractical in more than one way.

Secondary touchpads, express keys and multitouch function can be activated and deactivated quickly via gesture. Whole tablet is 180Β° flippable. And itΒ΄s just a study. But when you tell me, what exactly you find unpractical, I can create a new and improved version.

First: What is the point of having 30 Fkeys? Like with apps, most of them will stop being used short after being assigned to a command and will stand there "just in case". 12 of them are already on your keyboard, so you can press them with your other hand. The bottom 12 are in a position where you need to move your drawing hand in order to press them, it would be better to align them in a vertical row. I have no problem with the other 6.

Second: Why add touchpads to a device like a tablet? You'll end up with 3 input devices that do basically the same thing, and you can only use one at the time.

Third: The cost of that many functions cramped in a single device would be high.

As an extra (not a usability problem): The icon editor exists already for the Intuos4 Linux driver, though unofficial, it seems to work.
