wacom Table Intros 3 December 3, 2008
I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this Wacom Tablet. I orginally purchased this tablet to use with my Photoshop Elements software, which I found difficult to use all of the features correctly and knew that a tablet would solve most of my problems. I have had my Wacom Intuos 3 table for about three weeks now and I am so impressed with the features. For someone like me who sits on the bed with the laptop on my very small adjustable desk this is perfect. I have everything I need on the Wacom table (the keyboard, mouse, etc.) and I no longer need to reach for my laptop in uncomfortable positions and I no longer have to worry about getting muscle aches because my Wacom sits easily in my lap and allows me to do everything from this position. I have the 6x8, since this size is recommended for people using a laptop screen of average size or a desktop with an average screen. I was going to try to get the 12x12 because I like space, but that size is for someone using an LCD screen that is about 40 inches. Since I don't plan on using this Wacom with my television, this size is perfect for me.
I also like the feature that allows me to handwrite on the tablet and it automatically transforms it into written text. This feature is good for note taking college students. Each day I find a new feature, so overall I am very pleased with this purchase and it provides hours of fun.
Also I should note that it comes with Photoshop Elements 6.0, and two other applications that I have not had much time to use yet.
When I first got this tablet, I went immediately to [...] to download the latest software for this tablet, as this was recommended by another reviewer who had problems. I am glad that I did go to the site, because it had the latest version of software that was last updated in October of 2008. I read on the site that this latest update solves some software problems. I have not had any problems since having my Wacom tablet.
Best tool I own. November 22, 2008

This product has been worth it's money more than nearly anything else I've bought for the price. I've had it for nearly four years, and it looks brand new. The buttons still feel like new, the tablet itself is still shiny and sleek, no scratches, stains or anything. The pen still works after all these years. I use it everyday in place of my mouse. I would not consider not having a pen tablet. The size is perfect for my 17" laptop. I might have even been fine with the smaller version. Great buy for any digital aficionado.
Something extra to think about.... November 12, 2008

With this level of 5 star reviews this product obviously will change the way you approach graphic work for life.
Rather than rehash all that has been said, I would like to add a little notice for those who haven't used this product before. In photoshop make sure you take advantage of the snapshot button in the history panel. Once you start brushing with the pen you will quickly exceed your max undo-ability, no matter how high you have it set. Not sure where it is? At the bottom of the history panel, there is a little camera, it will be next to a trash can icon; click on it and that state of your work will be forever saved.
 Great Photoshop Tool November 11, 2008

The Wacom tablet is a great tool for professionals who want more control in rendering packages (like Photoshop) than what a mouse alone can give. As a ten-year Photoshop user, I'm familiar with the tricks of the trade... adding a tablet and stylus has made the program work better for me, as it provides a more direct hand-to-pen feel than what a mouse can deliver.
It's a bit of a transition going from mouse to tablet, if only because what you draw on the tablet actually appears on the screen. However, even my five year olds (budding scribblers) picked up on the idea of looking at the screen and drawing with a pressure-sensitive pen. If I (and they) can do it, so can you.
A must if you love to draw or have tiny objects to remove November 2, 2008

The Wacom Tablet has always been a mainstay of my work as an artist using Photoshop. I love to draw and often have to modify very small areas of my digital work. I just purchased a new Wacom up-to-date tablet and everything works beautifully except for one thing. Although I assume I have set the pen up to make a varied width line it does not do it on the tablet. I get a line that is all one width. This was also true on my last Wacom Tablet. This hopefully is something I am doing wrong and not the fault of the tablet.
