Strengths: I am glad i went with the tablet and this size. i find i can be more precise with my work on photoshop cs2. i can't wait to try it out on more projects at work and school.
Weaknesses:there are so many things to try out i don't know when i will have the time to try them all out.
Overall Evaluation: i like the portability of this tablet. i use it between work and home quite a bit. it is easy to just unplug, pack up, bring home and plug it in my home computer. i did not even know this equipment existed until i went to a photoshop seminar. i can't believe i went all this time without using the wacom tablet.

Strengths: Great sensitivity
Weaknesses:USB cable is looks weak
Overall Evaluation: Wacom tablet is one great tool to enhance handling any graphic application or web browser. Specially, to draw lines and hand writing lines are this tablet's great strength to show off. Even person like me who don't do any graphic can enjoy this stuff by drawing chinese characters.

Strengths: The ideal interface+ for my daughter who is a serious artist.
Weaknesses:Tiny little nibs- got to keep track of them- a case would help
Overall Evaluation: Easily installed to the USB of the computer, replaces the mouse in addition to adding the pen function. The tablet is light and easy to use in any position. The bundled software makes drawing on the computer sooo much easier and editing much quicker than using the mouse alone. My daughter adds: It r0x, we

Strengths: Very sensitive, perfect size, the control buttons are handy, great for Photoshop CS2.
Weaknesses:I've had a few problems. First, I occasionally lose the communication between the pen and the tablet. I upgraded the driver, and it still happens. On top of that, the drawing surface is falling off.
Overall Evaluation: It's really a great product, and I assume that I am dealing with a fluke product when it comes to my drawing surface falling off. The other problem is most likely just a software issue. I'll have to look in to it.

Strengths: Accuracy and comfort
Weaknesses:Build quality could be ever so slightly better; mouse clicks sometimes do not register; mouse is a little heavy for my taste
Overall Evaluation: I have been using Wacom tablets for a fairly long time -- since about 15 years ago. I have always found the top models to be of very high quality, and very reliable. The last model I was using, a serial port model from 10 years ago, still works reliably. Wacom's drivers have been a little quirky however, despite their innovative features. The Intuos 3 has great button and finger slider switches on both sides which are all customizable. They are a great convenience. The only weakness, which I have also observed on my older model is that, since switching to Win XP, the left mouse click sometimes does not register. Click, but nothing happens. Click again, and it works. Noticing that it happens on all my computers, and knowing that it probably isn't a mechanical failure, I have to guess it is a driver quirk. Depite this shortcoming however, this tablet, with its many features to enable creative work of all kinds, is an excellent peripheral.
