Graphics tablet

Does anyone use a graphics tablet and pin to help them in thier work?

IF so what brand do you use and what do you think of it?

Wacom Graphire here

i can only suggest to get one. i'm quicker with it and it is way more precise than any mouse i had so far.
a little minus is the mouse that comes withit. i don't use it, because it does a scratching sound when moved over the tablet.

I keep meaning to get one for illustration work, but I never get around to it. That and I never have the cash...

To me the tablet is a personal preference better used in say photoshop than in Max or Lightwave...If you decide to go with one though defineatly go with a USB tablet trust me less problems as for the brand WACOM is the leader

That is all I got to say about that
