Some digital artists may remember working with an intuos tablet and a laptop. Cintiqs may feel more natural and like drawing on paper, but working with the more typical drawing tablet set-up is much more ergonomic.
That's the reason why I'm interested in the Astropad Slate. t allows you to use your ipad as an input device for your mac, which gives you another option to work with if going shrimp-mode over your iPad starts causing you pain on the go.
