Wacom Bamboo One Graphics Tablet

Great first Tablet BUT, if you already have a graphics program I would consider the regular Bamboo. It only comes with trial software, but looks like it might be a slightly better product (it has a stand, and navigation buttons?)
This is the advice that I wish I'd had!
However, if you are looking for a package with a simple fun graphic program then this one is for you! :)
It's really a lovely little product, and so much better than a mouse!

Wacom Bamboo MTE450KEN Pen Tablet

first off, note this tablet has an A5 sized work area, but maps itself to the screen you have (I'm using it on a 27" and its more than fine).
It has 4 customizable buttons, for ease of use I've set mine to load Firefox, MSN Mesenger, Back and Forward buttons for Web / Folder navigation.
You can pretty much map the buttons to what you want, even a series of keystrokes!

This tablet works with both XP and Vista.

For Vista, it's fantastic.
for XP, its good.

Vista gives a lot more options for use, such as holding down the pen to simulate a double-click, handwriting recognition, quick "flicks" of the pen for scroll up / down and Back / Forward etc.

for XP, it's a standard tablet without ... Read More:

This laptop is great so far - no problems at all. It does everything my wife needed it for and because we ordered Office Student Edition we got money off both. I had no problems connecting it to my wifi router and straight onto internet. Took about 10 mins to get the setting sorted for my home network and now able to file and printer share within the network. Quite honestly it wasn't hard!
As to performance - obviously Vista is a bit bloated but quite frankly its not a major issue and system runs ok. It's not blisteringly fast but after discount the laptop cost £240 - if you want to run games you'd need to spend over a grand to get decent performance so you get what you pay for.

Aiptek Slim Tablet 600U

Was a bit sceptical on buying a tablet that wasn't by Wacom but not anymore. It was extremely easy to set up and works so easy. Its nice and light so I can take it with me and use on my mac book pro when I go back to Uni in September. Can't moan about the price either. I paid a bit extra to get it next day and sure enough it arrived before 12 today.

Comes with 2 spare nibs as well which makes a nice change. Not going to go in to much detail but as a first user tablet it performs great with no lag in touch to screen at all.

So if you need a tablet, buy this one today.

TRUST TB-4200 WIRELESS SCROLL TABLET

When you look at the above images, you expect to get a tablet with pen and mouse...but that's not the case. It may just be that I recieved a faulty item, but there was no 'ergonomic mouse' included with mine. I'm not that fussed about the mouse, though, since I work with a laptop, so I'm going to move straight on to the quality of the tablet itself.

Let me start by saying that I used to have a wacom, which most people will agree is one of the most well-known and best brands. And it was excellent, but tiny. I wanted something which had more working area, but didn't want to pay the price that wacom demanded, so going on the strength of the reviews below, I bought this model. And I'm in love with it. Yes, it takes a bit of time getting ... Read More:

Wacom Bamboo Fun Medium Graphics Tablet

September 14, 2007
I'm not going to bark on about how great it is. Other people have done that for me.

Instead i thought i'd answer a question i wanted to know before i bought it, ie how does it compare to the pricier sibling, the Intuos 3 range.

While i don't actually own a Wacom Intuos 3 i've used one extensively during freelance work for a couple of companies in london. I needed one simply to carry on the work from home without pilfering one of theirs. I sure there are stats somewhere to prove me wrong but this is my opinion.

Apart from the obvious price difference (around £90 for the A5 Intuos) one reason i considered the bamboo is because of it's size. The area surrounding the Intuos' touch pad is rather large and tends to dominate your ... Read More:

I bought this laptop after seeing a friends in use for 3 months. My friend had no problems, but the one I bought (and its replacement) both had faults and were returned. Amazon's returns policey was very good and I obtained a refund without any hassle.

The moral is, IF YOU BUY ONE - CHECK IT OUT THOROUGHLY; especially the functions that you don't use so often.

Wacom Bamboo Fun Small Graphics Tablet

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.
