Wacom Bamboo Tablet

This is an awesome little tablet, and the price was fantastic. It has a nice feel with good control as if you're drawing on paper, and it's also pressure sensitive. I use it with CorelDraw, Adobe Photoshop, and my embroidery digitizing software. This tablet was very easy to set up and use. As far as receiving this item, it came right away. I think I ordered it over the weekend, and it was here on Monday. Great product, excellent service.

Small surface area, but still pretty useful

I'm an instructor and I use this quite a bit for drawing up concepts for my students instead of using the flipchart. Works great!

I LOVE my Bamboo Tablet

I had always wanted a Bamboo Tablet and when I got one, I was not disappointed. I am a Photoshop Digital Scrapbooking maniac and my Bamboo is so amazing. It gives me ultimate control over what I'm working on. Actually, I love it for moving my cursor around quickly with any software. It's so different from a mouse, I had to get adjusted to it. But now that I have, I love it.

I read in a scrapbooking magazine to cover the writing area with plastic to keep it pristine. I had a piece of mylar so I used that. It works very well.

It feels good. It works well. I'm happy.

Awesome Gadget, great with Ubuntu Too

I purchased this product and very happy with the features. With the normal mouse my hand used start getting crams after a use for a while and bamboo pen tablet really helped me.
The best thing I loved about it is it got recognized by Ubuntu desktop and worked perfect with Gimp. I can now continue my painting/Drawing hobby which I left long back. The pen perfectly fits in the hand. The normal active area of 4x6 inches covers the complete 1600x1050 screen. Best part which I was not knowing before purchase and that was you do not have to touch the pen to the pad for moving th pointer. it senses the pen from a distance and have to touch the pad only for mouse clicks or drawing and the feature is exciting. This also reduces the wearing of the pen tip.
I feel it a very great gift for teens who are interested in painting and love working on Ubuntu. Also a good tool for the Project managers who work on Microsoft Onenote and presentation tools.

I got a software CW on Ubuntu and it is cool for your handwriting recognition, you just need to train the software properly. Now I do not have to upgrade my windows XP to vista for windows recognition software. I get it for free with my Ubuntu desktop too.

Con:
This con really do not matter for the normal user who do not use dual operating system. I use Synergy - freeware tool for sharing the keyboard and mouse of another computer running windows XP over network http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/. I got a problem sharing Bamboo with my Windows box. the active area is only avaibale to work with my Ubuntu box but I cannot extend it to work over the network through synergy. I do not think this is a must feature but would love to see it getting shared between two computers through synergy.

In nutshell I am very happy with the product and have recommended it to many of my collegues and friends. Don't worry about the con I mentioned above because it is really for advanced users.
