What is the best graphics tablet to buy?

[xparaparafreakx]

The Wacom Intuos line are the best tablets money can buy. Worth every cent. If you do a lot of pressure sensitive drawing you'll want the Intuos over the Graphire because the Intuos gives you double the PPI (1024 vs 512).

I use my 9x12 at work and a 4x5 comes with me in my backpack on the road. The more you use it the less you'll use a mouse. In fact I find it almost impossible to draw, path, etc. with a mouse or trackpad anymore. I can't wait until they introduce a Bluetooth Intuos.

The real fun is playing a FPS, Unreal Tournament 2004, with your tablet and pen. For those who have a tablet, try it out. Download a demo of Unreal Tournament 2004 and see what I mean.

New Intuos' sizes from Wacom

Wacom web site showed new Intuos model in different sizes (it used to be 3; now they added about 3 more different sizes).

Are Intuos models same as before except for the additional size? I am thinking about buying larger Intuos model. I have 4X6 model; but, it is rather small with 20" and 23" ACDs.

I just got Wacom Intuos 3 (9X12) for my PB. Compared with 4X6 (which I use with my iBook), this 9X12 is huge (and I like it). This 9X12 will complement Painter IX I just bought.
