I'm thinking of getting this one, but at 10cm by 12cm, it seems kinda small.

Any thing I should know about this tablet before I buy?

I got an A5 tablet from Wacom and it's perfectly fine, you dont really need a huge one i guess.....

This is the tablet that I've got and it's all I could ever ask for. No size problems at all, as you don't need an A4 size when you actually use it... Oh you'll see what I mean. :)

It's a worthwhile investment. :)

everyone says you dont need bigger, the biggest diff between all of them is how much pressure levels you get

I see I see...

I kind of realise what you guys meant about the size thing after I tried to draw in photoshop with my mouse.

Also, can I use my current mouse, a Logitech ps/2, simultaneously with this pad?

i dunno if i could get used to using a pad and pen :\

i am a gamer so i need a mouse to play my games

i dont do freehand stuff... i just use photoshop and stuff... so i dont need one of these... but i was just thinkin how weird it would be for me :P

I have a mouse hooked up as well as a graphire, and the graphire comes with a mouse.

I wasn't talking about replacing my mouse. I just would like it so that I can draw with the pen, then use my mouse to click in my other regular programs like irc or IE.

I 've got a Graphire 2 as well, and the size of it dosent bother me at all, i actually have allocated a little section of my tablet as active area, so its quicker and more responsive. No need for bigger tablets unless you want those macro (userdefined actions) on the side of your tablet. :beam: Great for airbrushing and freestyle illustration work.

yes. you only use the pen when you feel like it.
