It's been on my mind to pick up a graphics tablet but I'm not sure what size to get. I'm leaning towards the Intuos3 6x11. I use a 23 inch widescreen monitor but it's also on my mind to move up to a 30 incher later this year.
Does size matter? Is bigger better? Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,

Alot of what I've seen suggests that regardless of screen size, smaller is better for photography. The large pads make it possible to make large sweeping brush strokes for Illustrator. Its nice for the pad to match the shape of the screen but it isn't necessary for it to match the size.
I haven't used one of these pads, but it makes sense to me.

I used the very tablet you mentioned with my 26" widescreen monitor. It was a very nice combo (even though i just sold it, as I prefer mousing). If you like tablets, you'll really enjoy this model. Very customizable. The included mouse is not a precise tool - mine was very "jumpy". Be prepared to go all tablet, or keep your current mouse hooked up as well.
