I do have a Wacom.
Unluckily it starts to trick while using with GIMP. As soon as I removed it, GIMP works nicely. I am not so smart to fix the problem.

Maybe I also have not had a real need ... or skills for it ? My PP and digi artwork skills are quite close to zero.

Still, I keep it. Waiting better times I see a good potential if I get that far one day.

PS. Stefan, you have good hand

Hi Barrie.
Have used it a couple of times, seems to work ok with Lightroom and Elements. Must admit it's not really my thing though .. I very rarely do much to my pics apart from the usual cropping, sharpening and levels.

Thanks Mike. Has anyone else had any experience with the Trust TB-7300 Wide Screen.

I would go to the shop and try them out.
Personally I would go for Wacom tablets, no batteries and then pens are therefor lighter also they have better support.
Thrust are okay though but for the money I would spend 30 pounds more and get a wacom bamboo medium.

I went with the Trust TB-7300 and, after a few problems uninstalling the old A6 tablet, it seems to be working fine. It will take time to get used to the increase in movement required but so far so good.
