I’ve had an Intous for a couple years and love it. But it’s time to upgrade!

A must-have for doing persnickety Photoshop work. I bought a Bamboo recently (less expensive on Amazon.com) and it’s really quickened my work flow.

I don’t know if I would ever personally buy one, but I would like to see what Apple would do with a tablic PC or graphics Tablet.

Loved the video Chris! I have a graphics wacom tablet myself, it’s not very fancy. (it’s about 2 years old) It’s a 6×8 I think, and it’s a graphire 3.

Anyways, It’s served me well, I love how responsive it is. I’ve been drawing all my life and I can say this, “wacom is as close as you can get to paper!” No doubt about it…

Thanks Chris!

My sister uses photoshop and cad a lot and is looking into buying a tablet and I found that info VERY helpful.
I’ll send this to her.
My laptop supports pen use but does not have pressure/tilt sensitivity.
I have not yet found a tablet that has all the things I would need. but is also portable.

That may seem small, but the unit is pretty much the size of a standard mouse pad, so it doesn’t take up any extra desk space.

I haven’t used a standard mouse in this time either, as the wacom kit came with a mouse as well as the standard stylus…very handy indeed.

So, the two bits of advise I would give when getting a tablet, is get one that comes with a mouse & go wacom!

I’ve been using a graphics tablet for almost two years. It’s a wacom graphire4 4″X5″.

I really love my Wacom Bamboo tablet, although the tips are a bit week. I upgraded to better tips, and now my $80 tablet works better than my $250 tablet. Great design too!
