Can I use an iPad Pro instead of a Wacom tablet with CS6 on a PC?

I run PS CS6 on a robust Windows 10 PC, and since I see the iPad Pro being marketed as a hi-res table along with an Apple Pen, I was wondering if it can be used as a graphics tablet with PS instead of purchasing a Wacom tablet.  There's an app named AstroPad, but that works only with the Mac version of PS, or so I'm told.  Any suggestions?

I saw this linked to from Kyle Webster's Brush site, which is quite a good reference. I have no personal experience with it though.

Looks like a good approach. I'm keen to try AstroPad myself now.

It does require Photoshop for Mac according to the system requirements.
