I can see you really like your tablet, Mighty XD

Tablets are awesome, though. I have a Wacom. It's smaller than some I've seen, but here's what it looks like:

I only use the pen for drawing, and I use the mouse for just browsing through the internet and such. The pen makes things so much easier when I want to do computer drawings.

My tablet was only 80$. It's a black ,4x6 or 5x6(cant remember) , bamboo-wacom, writing/ drawing tablet. I love it so much and it works wonders. Howerver I cannot use it for versions Photoshop 6 and down. That''s why i use photoshop 7. hehe. I had to share my tablet love <3.

Got mine for a year and a few months. And gotta say it makes my life a lot easier.
It's a Wacom Volito 2 pen tablet. Ain't a big one, but I say it works really well. And I never had problems with it. (OMFG this sounds like a commercial :shock:

)

I have a Wacom Intous 3 6x8 it is a wonderful tool and fantastic for the uses I need it for. While I primarily use Photoshop and Painter it is equip for many other programs as well. The tablet is extremely easy to use, just press down and draw and the lighter or heavier the pressure the fainter or darker the pen. I highly advise getting a Wacom tablet for any aspiring artist but I would go with a

Wacom Bamboo 4x5 this is Wacom's newest tablet and a 4x5 is the optimal size area you should need. an Intous 3 is for professional graphic designers and artists and you can save some money and get a piece of equipment that does the same thing for less.

75 Dollars is a great price for a tablet and the usual if you are looking into getting one BUT an Intous 3? expect to be paying around 300 dollars.
