    Those look cool. How does it do with laying your hand down on it to sketch or write? Does it confuse the pressure caused by your hand with the pressure caused by the stylus?

    No, it's not like the touchpad on a laptop. It only recognizes the pen. The pressure sensitivity is really cool. You can also make it vary opacity and color..

    It comes w/ a cordless mouse too.

    That thing is too cool. Did you order it from them or did you find it cheaper elsewhere?

    I don't think 99 dollars is too bad expensive. Actually I was expecting it to be a little more. When I went to their site I saw the 199-749 and was choking until I saw that was for a different model.

    I use a Wacom Intuos 2 on the Mac and love it--I will probably get the Graphire for home use, but I really prefer the tablet over the mouse, especially for Photoshop use. Luckily I picked up on the usage pretty quickly--I understand that some people do have problems getting used to the tablet versus the mouse.
    So much to learn
    In so little time!

    I have the Wacom A4, and I love it.. What I'd really like is one of these though:
