Seems like I read that it will not ship until end of February 2007.

The new brush feature/function looks interesting and the "more Photoshop-like" layer management (in terms of merging/combining) to me is a real plus.

Whether it's worth the price of upgrade will be an individual call.

I will probably wait for the X.1 patch before taking the leap. Corel is not known for releasing real clean initial release software.

The RealBristle brushes are superb!!

Try it out.

I like the Auto Paint Palettes. The Mac upgrade to X-5 was free.

Are you refering to Painter 9 (IX -> IX.5) or 10 that was announced 2/2007?

Sorry... I meant IX-5

I just got mine today. Upgraded from Painter 8. So far I am impressed, but I better be because it's over twice the size.

I'm looking forward to experimenting with the RealBristle Brushes and the Photo-Painting system.

Also for you Wacom owners, don't forget they offer discounts on various products and Painter X is one.
