Wacom delivers with Bamboo Fun!
By Mark
Wacom has brought this technology a long way. This product is more affordable than the higher end Intuos3 models, yet powerful enough for many pros.For me, the small size is perfect and will fit most users needs. The "medium" sized tablet is suited for hard core graphics people who need to work at the pixel level for large images. Those using this for the mouse also may prefer the medium size. Either way, the tablet maps to your screen size for any of these models.This unit comes in a variety of colors and configurations. I prefer the look of the black tablet, but there are silver, white and blue ones also.Bamboo Fun (Medium) Silver Tablet with Pen, Mouse & Graphics SoftwareBamboo Fun (Medium) Black Tablet with Pen, Mouse & Graphics SoftwareBamboo Fun (Medium) Blue Tablet with Pen, Mouse & Graphics SoftwareBamboo Fun (Medium) Silver Tablet with Pen, Mouse & Graphics SoftwareBamboo Fun (Small) White Tablet with Pen, Mouse & Graphics SoftwareBamboo Fun (Small) Silver Tablet with Pen, Mouse & Graphics SoftwareBamboo Fun (Small) Blue Tablet with Pen, Mouse & Graphics SoftwareBamboo Fun (Small) Black Tablet with Pen, Mouse & Graphics SoftwareUpon plugging in the device, it works immediately! The pen works as a mouse or as a pen/brush for drawing applications. The tablet also has function buttons.The mouse is nice because it allows you to free up a USB port if you're using a USB mouse. Power users will need more from a mouse though. If you're anything like me, you prefer a mouse with many more options than this one provides.Installing the drivers and software allows you to access the settings and tools that make this device versatile and customizable. Be prepared to spend some time tweaking this unit to your likes. The Bamboo software allows you to customize the mouse or pen buttons. Left-handers will greatly appreciate this!The software included with this device is a nice to have. Many people who buy this will already have or need full blown Adobe Photoshop. Adobe Elements gives you everything casual users need. The Corel application is nice to play with. But other than a few "macro" type functions I have yet to find anything I can't already do with Adobe. Perhaps newer users may find the Corel product more user-friendly.Pros+ USB connection+ Works on XP and Vista almost plug and play - before software installation+ Nice customizable software+ Nice bundled applications - Adobe Elements and Corel Draw+ No additional power adapter needed+ Traditional or pen mouse for casual usersCons- The scrolling zoom function does not work uniformly on all applications- The mouse with this model will not suffice for power users- Default settings require a lot of adjusting for graphics editing- The tablet would have been ideal with several additional USB portsOverall, the graphic artist or visual junkie NEEDS one of these. If you are a casual user, it is worth getting one on sale.Enjoy.

AWSOME!
By Rusker Doo
I have a Wacom Intuos 9x12 which I couldn't live without but It's a pain to drag it from work to home every day and deal with hooking it up so I took a look at this tablet.I was a little skeptical that the reduced size and the consumer level price tag would mean that it wouldn't preform well enough to meet my needs.This tablet has great resolution and is the perfect replacement for the mouse. I still prefer my Intuos when I'm doing heavy graphic stuff but for every-day use the bamboo is awsome.

Great tablet with some limitations
By Z. Vig
I purchased this pen tablet to go with my brand new macbook. Installation was a breeze, and it has a great interactive tutorial. The software bundle (photoshop elements and corel painter essential) is a bit out-of-date, not current versions of the software. The tablet is easy to use, and surprisingly accurate. Feels very paper-like, although it makes a little scratching noise, when you touch the surface the stylus. Works flawlessly with the macbook's built-in ink applcation, and you can take notes that immediately convert to typed text, with amazing accuracy.My only problem is that since the the active area of the tablet corresponds to your screen, you can't rotate the tablet (unless you rotate the screen, which is not that easy to do with a laptop, although I have yet to try it with my external monitor), so unfortunately it is in fact a lot smaller than you would think based on the dimensions. (I draw fashion sketches, so they tend to be vertical)I do love the corel painter application that came with it, and will probably buy the current, full version. It has great, realistic watercolor renderings, and works perfectly with the tablet.In retrospect, I think I would have been better off saving some money and buying the modbook (a tablet version of the macbook) instead. Maybe next time.
