I have an Intuos 2 and thought this would be an improvement.I haven’t seen it. Works fine but I’m using it the same as before. I don’t “get” all the bells and whistles. The tutorial isn’t much of a help. Good luck trying to figure out the “advanced” features.

I had tried a tablet once before but ended up returning it because I didn’t like it and it was too small for me to do much with. The box this comes in is very impressive and very large, it protects the tablet well. There are new drivers online so I downloaded them instead of using the cd from the box. The driver seems to work well with XP but there is sometimes a lag when trying to select a menu function on screen. This tablet is fairly large and gives a good surface for creativity and the extra nibs are included in the little stand that holds the pen, to make the creativity happen and give a different feel to the pen. the pen is very sensitive and feels almost like a regular pen. I too don’t care for the way the mouse moves, the mouse can only be used on the tablet and the tablet is not completely smooth so the mouse moves slower than what I am used to. I installed it on my laptop so I can play with it in the family room and it does not disable my logitech mouse so I can switch to my regular mouse when I want to. (the other tablet ‘bamboo fun’ I had tried would disable my regular mouse completely) Since I have not used one of these tablets regularly it does take some getting used to but once I get the hang of how everything moves and the feel of it I will be able to create a variety of art.
I haven’t figured out the touch ring as of yet, there is definitely a learning curve here for those of us that have never used these much. I do like that the buttons and the touch ring can be customized.
This is a fun and useful tool and should get the creative juices running, the larger size makes it much nicer to use and handle.
I checked on the free software online but the top plugins don’t state what version they are for, they should be more specific on what versions this can be used for and the links aren’t clickable right now either, so maybe they have not finalized the website? I can’t use the ones listed at the bottom of the page since my software is older than specified for those applications.
If you have the extra money, this is a great little tablet that will give you and/or your kids enjoyment and creativity. I will have to update this at another time when I have had more time to play with it and get the feel of the functions better.

It is my first time having a pen tablet. I feel like they could make it a little less touchy as far as the little button at tip of the pen goes, but other than that I really like using it!

For most 4 out of 5 people I would suggest the medium size Intuos 4, because:
A) cheaper
B) faster
It’s gonna be less ergonomic for painter/artists, but quicker for most designers, photo retouchers, just power users who want a pen.
4 stars to the medium size.

I replaced my old Intuos 2 with this tablet and was very disappointed. I didn’t find any difference in the pressure sensitivity from my old tablet. Also - this new one for some reason, constantly froze Photoshop and I had to shut down my computer even after installing the latest driver. Back it went.
