This is a really good addition to a graphcis programme (I design and make greetings cards), which is why I bought it - but it is so much more useful than that! It replaces a conventional mouse in a very user friendly way and is a lot more comfortable to use too. If only it could make a cup of coffee......?! Easy to set-up and customise - it really is a 'Plug and play'. The Artrage software that comes bundled with it is a cute little programme - good for kiddies and adults. All-in-all great value for money and as usual Amazons service was brilliant.

Like many this was my first tablet. For the price, you can't go wrong, it works like a charm. Sure it's missing some features, but this is an _entry level_ tablet.
Pros:
Good price
Looks the business
Up and running in minutes
Works very well in all the applications I tried:
Photoshop, ArtRage, Sketchbook Pro
Cons (some only minor):
No spare nibs
No application specific setup on the tablet functions (you'll need an Intuos for that)
Pen button a little too high up the pen for me at first
Pen could benefit from being a just a little heavier
Takes a little time to get used to right mousing
You miss your scroll wheel not being 'right there' at first

I just knew this was too good to be true! I've been using Wacom tablets for years and now wanted to move onto an A4 version but since it's around 350 pounds I searched for alternatives. Well, the 600U is here, and personally it's nowhere even close to a Wacom. I have nothing bad to say about the size, quality or the slimness but honestly, how hard do you have to press the pen to get anything out of it? It really frustrates me. I had to nearly lie down on it to make it draw properly, and there's extremely limited adjustment available. From the lowest to the highest value of pressure I couldn't feel the difference at all. I will be saving for the Intuos now, this is a disappointment.

This is the first tablet I have used and it is making life a lot easier, as I have problems with my muscles and using my hands so the mouse is now almost redundant. The "artrage" software is a lot of fun and easy to use, so all in all it has been an excellent buy.

I have used my old Wacom Graphire A6 tablet for many years now and found it OK but a bit on the small size.
The larger Wacom Intuos3 A5 Tablet Pen and Mouse USB is the perfect size and the no battery mouse and stylus are excellent. The scroll/zoom sliders are very useful and suite left and right handed users.
I echo the praise regarding the functionality and sturdy design in the other reviews.
I would just like to mention that the Ultra Smooth surface of the tablet has helped reduced the sensitivity in my palms, and this is a bonus I didn't expect when I bought this beautifully designed equipment.
The price put me off buying it sooner which I now regret as you will find it worth every penny and wonder how you worked without it.. ... Read More:

I bought the wacom bamboo medium [A5 size] for use with ZBrush 3.1 mainly and have to say it's wonderful and much better than my old wacom A6 slate, i find the size of the tablet is just about right as i like to have the tablet/pen 'available' on my desk and so it's no too large that it takes over the space on my desk where mu mouse goes..i can use both with no hassle.
A larger tablet, like the intuos A5> has a much larger surroud area or an A4 tablet may have to be stored away when not in use.
using in on my 24" screen is fine [HD size res screen]..sure there's abit of traveling from one corner to another but the A6 size works well and is of high enough res to sculpt in zbrush without a hitch.
I also use the bamboo medium tablet on ... Read More:

I bought my first trust graphics tablet (TB2100)from the super market I go to and after 1 week of using it , the connection between the pen and tablet kept disappearing so I contacted the trust technical support and recieved several emails to confirm the problem.
In the end I took it back and got a new one which I've only just used and is also not working.The program I use the graphics tablet for is manga studio and I must say that now I'm going to have to buy another tablet costing me more money!!
I even tried using the driver on the disk and one online for windows xp , and only just found out from previous reviews about this product that it only works with adobe programs .
So I suggest that before you by something make sure you ... Read More:
I got this tablet not for drawing, signing, or commenting. The primary reason was because the use of the computer mouse was staining my hand and arm. I heard about this alternative while visiting a university in which an ergonomic specialist prescribed these tablets for everyone as an alternative to the mouse. Since I started using Bamboo, I no longer have strain problems with my arm.
If you experience, or fear experiencing, Repetitive Strain Injury (RSI), this is a great tool.

I actually got this as my first 'major' graphic's tablet while not wanting to go over board and spend over £100. And this is worth every penny. I've found it great for photoshop even if it took about 5 minutes to work out the pressure variatons for the brushes but its great. The scrolling wheels are brilliant for both scrolling and zooming while the working area is a good size for the digital colouring work I do.
I've found with this that the handwriting software that is a part of the bundle is actually pretty good, its only flaw being that it has a trouble with some of my joined up writing. But if you're like me and enjoy writing just as much as typing but constantly lose paper then this is great for writing to the computer.

Use this for my lessons and write my notes. I've searched for that kind of product long time until I finally found it here on Amazon. The My Note Premium 2 is already Vista compatible. Use for sketches, handwriting notes is pretty easy. All A4 sizes paper fits in horizontal notepad mode. You have the possibility to load the handwriting in your PC via USB cable or save on SD-card and you still have the original in hardcopy. With the software you can digitalize your handwriting. Without paper and in landscape format it is a simple graphics tablet which is ideally for photo editing. Overall a smart product!
