Electronics : Wacom Intuos3 6 x 11-Inch Pen Tablet |
- input device overkillI bought and returned this item with the idea I would use it as an input device alternative to relieve some stress from my mouse. Not good for that application, you still have allot of motion which includes increased arm and wrist motion. As far as a drawing device its very good but the amount of drawing I do I accomplish with a rollerball, not Picasso stuff but simple shapes and objects. Those into serious illustration cant live with out this device though. The quality of the materials seemed very good.

- Great product small gripeI love this wacom 6x11, used on a pc with dual monitors and ps3 and painter. The only gripe I have is the slider quick button to the top left and right of the tablet area. My arm rests in that area when I draw so I start zooming in and out like crazy when my forearm touches the slider bar which is a pain at times. Other than that maybe a way to prop up the tablet would be cool, I'm using erasers right now. Sleek design and very lite. The pen has a great balance to it and fits very comfortable in your hand for those allnighters. Wireless would be great but not sure about response on a 500mg file. I would upgrade to a larger one maybe if I had the extra money but this size is great.

- Great for Web Design / Graphic artists!The Wacom tablet is just great! At the beginning I was having some kind of difficulties coordinating the movements of my hand and just looking into the monitor, but pretty soon I started to know how to use it better and now I do more things with it than with the normal mouse.
I'm working on two monitors at the same time and it's just great that the included software lets you decide you want th tablet to cover so in case you want to use only on a program or screen, that will be easy to accomplish!

- Awesome toolUsing it with Vista, and it has worked perfectly. Took a bit to find and enable all the Features of Vista that can use a tablet, but everything works extremely well.
I was also very pleasantly surprised to find it included Photoshop Elements 6.0 -- was not expecting the latest version! And this tablet is absolutely awesome for photo editing (the primary reason I bought it in the first place). I find myself doing significantly more complex corrections now, and enhancing more photos in general too, just because it is now so easy to do!
Highly recommended, very accurate and capable, and the bundled software is remarkably high quality too; definitely a value add unless you already have Photoshop CS3 and/or the full strength Corel Painter X. And if you don't have those, but want them, it includes savings coupons for both Photoshop CS3 and Painter X - with savings totalling more than what you pay for the tablet!

- I love it more than my mother!Haha, just kidding mom. ;)
On a serious note the wacome is an essential addition to any photo, graphic, or video professional. I do all three and this tablet has expanded my capabilities greatly. Using a pen is so much more natural than a mouse, thus you will be getting retouching done faster than before. It also has the pressure sensitivity which allows you to dynamically resize your brush even within a stroke.
The 6x11 size is defiantly sufficient for my needs, but make sure you get wide screen tablet if you have a widescreen monitor. Works together all the better.
You cant go wrong here... The only decision is if you would want the bluetooth version, and unless you want to burn through batteries get the corded.. It comes with a verry long usb cable so ive never had any problems.
