excellent product
By G. Ritchie
As a keen amateur photographer, this is the perfect product for use with photoshop to correct, enhance and manipulate photographs. It allows a more natural flow than a mouse, with painting and erasing using the same actions as a real paintbrush or eraser.This makes photoshop so easy to use that I rarely make mistakes, thus cutting down the time spent in front of a PC after every shoot.

At last a tablet with bite!
By mr.
I've been using a succession of wacom tablets for 10 years as a designer for the film industry. The work I do is very traditional in some ways. I worked as a comic strip artist for 10 years before moving on to films and all the work I did for comics was using real world materials. The wacom tablet (and Corel's Painter) allowed me to continue working in a similar style that I had developed as a non-digital illustrator. Except I always found the wacom tablet's drawing surface to be too smooth and that combined with the slight (very slight) delay in the response of the pen when drawing meant I had to keep a very tight grip on the pen to keep the control I want. I ended up with a permanently swollen thumb as a result and suffered fatigue in my fingers. Not terrible...just enough to make long hours of drawing uncomfortable. The new wacom tablet surface has a 'tooth' and the pen is incredibly sensitive. I am on day five and my grip has relaxed and I am finding i have far better control of Painter's pressure sensitive brushes. I am 'un-doing' far less as the strokes I want go down first time. This is worth the cost of the upgrade. The express keys and touch ring are a luxury that I don't really need as I use keyboard shortcuts for everything but I can see that they would be very useful for someone less fluent in various apps shortcuts. They are a big improvement on the Intuos 3's touch strip ....for one thing they are close to your hand (I never use my keyboard hand on them as Wacom suggests) and they have an led display which tells you what the keys have been assigned to. The keys are also customizable. Now if we can just get Painter to listen to professional artists we will be in illustrators heaven.

Fun fun
By Simon Cromwell
Seeing this being unwrapped at Christmas was beautiful. The new owner said "I will hardly ever use this" which is just what I wanted because I'm going to be borrowing with big bad baby 365 days a year :D I love wacom tablets.Pros:Makes you look like a pro graphics artist even if you suckSaves you the hassle of reducing your mouse speed to turtle crawl when you need to do fine workMakes colouring sketches very fast, I coloured one while typing this lineYou can replace all consumable parts (30euro for the surface, 10euro for 5 tips)The pen detects pressure and the angle you hold it (up to 60 degrees, but doesn't detect rotation orientation, see Cons)You can assign the 8 built in buttons to key combinations or pre-defined functionsYou can unplug your mouse and throw it awayConsPen tips wear out very fast and cost double in EUTablet surface texture slowly wears offConsumables are overpriced in EUThe default pen doesn't detect rotation orientation, you must buy the 109euro Art Pen to get itIt takes up very much room on a desk so ensure you have a good desk real estate or keyboard drawer solutionIf you sucked at freehand drawing before you bought this then you'll suck afterwards :(
