Guest dawnsmemories Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I just brought mine home and hooked it up!!!!! I am so excited! I wish I had time to really play right now but... I have to go pick up the kids. My daughter will be sooo jealous, she wanted one for Christmas but she is 7! I am already limiting her computer time not to mention, I couldn't let her have one before me now that my laptop is dead and my desktop does not have a pen for it! How do you like that justification! Have a GREAT day! Dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dawnsmemories Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 You kidding, I already had the dynamic brushes... now to play once I get the kids to bed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandiC. Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I've had mine for just over a week now and I love, love, love it. Just starting to realize its potential though. I wasn't sure I would really use it or like it, but its fantastic. I think this was a great tool to get. Worth every penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoannB Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Oh, congratulations!! I love my Wacom! I use it, exclusively, instead of a mouse. It's my favorite thing! Throw that mouse away, and you'll be used to it in no time at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjaguiar Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 you are going to love it! I got one last year and play on it all the time! it is such fun to have around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaL Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 So where is the best place to check these out at. If I am going to ask for one...I should get a price. Are most of you happy enough with the small one, or should I consider the next size up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dawnsmemories Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I got the smaller one... there are 2 different versions, I got the more expensive of the small it was $99 at Best Buy. Dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrappinang Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I have had the small one for almost a year and just in the last couple of days I have almost completely stopped using the mouse/pad on the laptop. The tablet is much faster once you get used to the area dynamics of the tablet. I am extremely happy with the small sized one. I think my arm would get tired moving around a larger area. I suppose the larger one would be an advantage for someone who illustrates, sketches, or otherwise creates embellishments and such, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SandiC. Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I got the medium, because I want to draw and write with it. for just plain old navigation I think the small would actually be better. I do have to make larger movements with the pen. I haven't even used my mouse once since I first plugged it in. I got mine at Costco (online) It came with a mouse which I tried and put in the drawer. It is so cool to use with brushes. I haven't really created anything yet, but have just doodled for a couple of hours. My next SG 52 LO will have my handwriting on it. Stay tuned, may post it tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaL Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 I think I would end up wanting to draw and write on mine also...so I will need to keep that in mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tink Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I bought one last year... started to use it but was waiting for the class. then the class came & of course somehting came up & I missed it... so did I open the tut & go through it... uh no, not yet. On my to do list. Gotta do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MargotW Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I got the small less expensive one. I couldn't see paying $30. for software and a mouse - both of which I have. I love the small one and haven't used my mouse since I got the tablet. I haven't tried the dynamic brushes yet - have to do that. I got mine at Amazon - I think it was about $70. Have fun!

scrappinang Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 I guess I didn't say where I got mine...I got it at Best Buy, $99.99. Mine came with a mouse that I have never used because it's a lot too big to use with the small tablet and PSE 5 software (which I already had).

Guest dawnsmemories Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 my daughter came into my office last night and saw it for the first time... oops! She was so jealous! Unfortunately (actually fortunately for me) it won't work on her laptop (it is a small eee pc that uses linux). Now I may have to fight for computer time once in awhile but with the wacom, she can make birthday cards and such for me as she loves to draw. I am still initially playing and working on it, I am hoping this weekend allows me LOTS of time to play. Dawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
