Going to take SOME time to get used to the movement of the pen, very different from working with a mouse. I keep returning the pen pointer to the middle of the map like I would the mouse to stop it moving off the end of the table. Some rethinking required here.

Yes, the "direct-addressing" aspect takes a while to get used-to; you have to think of the tablet as a miniaturized screen. On the other hand (sic), it's pretty similar to the touch-screens used on tablets and phones....

What I can say so far, is the medium is quite a bit larger than anticipated. Not a bad thing or a good thing, just an observation. With the larger active area, it obviously required larger hand movements than would be required for the small. But therein, I suspect, you have a little more senstivity (accuracy)?

Love the fact that you can totally program all 8 buttons and wheel your liking. The wheel alone has been awesome. Love being able to zoom in and out effortlessly, or adjust brush size rapidly. The pan/scroll feature is also really handy.

Once I've played with it more, I'll come back and post some more thoughts. Feel free to ask any specific question's you'd like in the meantime.


The wheel you say.. than you have the Intuos Pro I suppose. Black? At the left side 4 buttons, a wheel and again 4 buttons?

This one ?


Nadine, the Intuos 4 precedes the current line, the Intuos Pro. It has the exact same setup though, just a slightly different design

Garry, where did you order your tablet from?

Mark, I actually got it for a steal on FM. Was sold as used, but I can't tell it from new. The previous owner tried it, didn't like it and put it up for sale. For $100 shipped, yes please.

I REALLY REALLY want one of these.
Christmas gift sounds like an awesome idea.

Ok secret santa... where are you? ;)

;) I've just informed my husband about my plans. New Year is coming closer and a gift certificate for some amount is always nice to have ;)

The new Wacom Pen and Touch tablets are very reasonably priced, I think, if you're looking for new.

I did get a bargain buying used though. Something to consider.
