Wow, just saw the dimensions of that one and realised it's A5. I was expecting it to be tiny! That is a real bargain! When I was buying tablets (about 4 years ago mind!) the cheaper ones had a lot of negative reviews regarding poor reliability, and were almost all A6-size. Has this one kept working well? If so, that's really cool, because I love tablets and think everyone should get one

well, i have had it for about 4 months and it works perfectly. of course, that's not very long, but my friend has had his for longer and it still works fine.
i'd definitely recommend it to anyone and everyone.

I have a bamboo, but never really used it because I couldn't get over how sensitive it was compared to the good ol' pencil. How long did it take for you guys to get over this obstacle?

Tape a piece of paper over your bamboo. Works like a charm.

Does the pad not have a sensitivity setting that you can change? There might be something in the tablet settings that would fix this.

It took me one year to be at ease with an old Volito², but I wasn't practicing very often. I then switched to a Bamboo A6, which is fine for most uses. But after two years I finally had the need for a larger model. I absolutely love my Intuos4 Medium, and still use the Bamboo when not at home because it can fit easily in my bag. I can't recommend enough the use of a tablet. Sometimes I dream of a Cintiq... but it's definitely too expensive

The Cintiq is way overpriced. And they can get away with it because it's basically the only product of it's type on the market.
Bastards!

I was somewhat hyperbolic in my last statement. The DIY Cintiq is pretty cool, but the high price point of the actual Cintiq is actually fairly justified.
It's not the tablet tech that they price for so much as the screen itself. It's an extremely high quality, colour accurate display.

I've got WACOM Volito2 (A6), and I have a bit of a problem with it. Seeing as I have two monitors, 24" and 22", this tablet is way too sensitive with it's side-to-side movement. Is there any program which could change the 'active area' of my tablet to be my 1st monitor only, and maybe even just the middle part of the monitor (60% or so of the actual surface area)?

The wacom preferences software lets you change the active area of the tablet. You should be able to set it to only one of your monitors or a portion of one. Have a look in the preferences utility.

Thanks, got it working now!
For some reason I just dismissed "Details..." button next to Pen Mode portion of the settings, and that's where those settings were.
