Wacom Tablets for Cheemo and Spock - Which?

That's the one I got a few days ago, from my brother.

Okey, I'm getting the Bamboo Fun Medium, and since my parents are lending me 130 on top of my already accumulated 70 dollars, I can get it today.


I find the Bamboo Fun Small looks obsurdly small, and the Induos4
Medium too expensive for a hobbiest.


I only wanted an alternate input device for art, and the Fun does more than I even need.


Speak now or forever hold your peace.

I have a Medium size Bamboo Fun (Which I recommend). It's a bit small, but not to the point where it can cause issues.

Dude, I have the small Bamboo Fun, and it's big enough.

Seriously? It seemed insanely small to me.

Medium sized looks as big as a keyboard.

Small is about a third of an average keyboard, lengthwise.

It just about is. The drawing space is about/close to the size of a piece of printer paper.

Orly? It looked like about a half of printer paper from the picture.

Then how big is the small compared to printer paper? I only need a half of a sheet sized area.

Half a sheet.

The bamboo small is like 5 inches by 4 inches are something absurd like that.

There's a (large) image I took of the Bamboo Fun Medium with two sheets of printer paper (Width and height comparison). I also put a quarter on the tablet.

[Spockticus]

By half a sheet, I mean the workspace is like a piece of printer paper folded in half. The average piece of printer paper is 12' by 9' or something, the Medium's workspace is 8' by 5' which is not a full sheet. The small is 5' by 3', which is about twice the size of my trackpad. Do not want.

NINJA EDIT: Ok, after seeing Snaffle's pic, I think I'm still going with the Medium. Thanks, Blockland community!

It's like turning a regular computer into a touch screen computer.

I love mine.
It's excellent.

[Spockticus]

Even though the basic Bamboo seems nice, I'm really going to appreciate the software and whatnot. And I look forward to the large workspace, because I like to be very detailed with my drawings. (I refuse to use anything but a .5m lead mechanical pencil :D)


Yay.

[Spockticus]

Also, as far as the Graphire Wireless (Gen. Nick's and Adio's) goes, It's too expensive for just wireless capabilities. I'd like it, but I'm not paying an extra 140 so I don't have to use the cable.
