Time to update my Graphics tablet.

I like my Wacom fine, but would like a larger one than it's 6x8.
suggestions, please?

I see lots of little tiny ones in Fry's, etc - but want something bigger.. I have trouble with fine editing on little tablets.

Thanks -

Sandy

Sandy: I currently use the Intuous4 Medium. Prior to that I used the Intuous2 6x8. The medium is not much larger, but I find the control to be really nice. The Intuous 4 is a big improvement over the older model. If the Medium is not large enough, you can always take a look at the Large model. I just find them to be so large that hand movement is too much and the desk size requirements are also too much. Just my 2 cents.

I agree with Keith, the Intuos-4 is quite nice, and is highly customizable. I have the 'Small' size, due to space limitataions, but still find it a very nice tool and even with fine editing, I have no problems.If you have the desk space, the Medium size may be better for you.
