Yep, this is a Wacom Cintiq 22HD, yesterday +Genia Larionova (our retoucher, she is the best:-) unpacked it and now is enjoying her first drawings on it.
The only thing that we did not expected is that we can’t have 2 DVI monitors  connected to her Macbook Pro (non retina, it has only one thunderbolt port).
So, the next upgrade will be a new macbook pro with 2 thunderbolt ports I guess.
Now it works in mirrored mode. Still so cool:-)

I bought it from Amazon, non expensive shipping and no taxes:Wacom CINTIQ 22HD Pen Display – Graphics Monitor with Digital Pen – Black

Do you need a review for this Wacom? Let me know, we can record our feelings about it in a week or so:-)

Update:

Speaking of displays, there is only one thunderbolt display is on the market (Apple cinema 27”) and it sucks, has no anti-glossy screen version is available, and glossy finish makes it unusable for our retoucher.

Thanks to Ron Gibbs who pointed to this cool hub for DVI monitors:

Ordered, and saved $3500 from buying a thunderbolt hub macbook pro with 2 thunderbolt display ports.

Update:

First Genia’s work made on this Wacom:

That Maxtor DisplaytoGo did not work.
