I'm just curious if anyone uses the mouse that comes with the Wacom tablet ?
If you use the stylus for everything, then you dont need the mouse at all, wacom or otherwise,... ? if you do use a mouse, you most probably already have one and the tablet mouse is slow and laggy, and there is no problem to run the regular mouse along with the tablet.
So, I'm puzzled. _________________ "I'm not a shrimp, I'm a KING PRAWN !" -- Pepe.

ahahhaahhh
the wacom mouse. it doesn't even fit on the graphires. I myself have a 9x12 and it came with the wonderful 4d mouse, which sucks.
i've found the only use for it is leaving it by my bed, and then using the tablet as a remot control (for my computer), becasue the cord is really long. I would use the pen, but I don't want to leave it around my bed because it might get busted.
The wacom mouse might be useful, if I could game with it, but its deffinitly not a gaming mouse (keep in my I'm refeering to the 4d mouse, not the 2d, which is a bit better) its to fat, to clumsy, (especcialy with the gay half sized buttons) and my favoirte part, the non scroll scroll wheel. Instead of rolling, it just comes back. (sorry, can't think of any other way to describe it)
I'm not meaning to "diss" wacom, but the 4d mouse just isn't for me. It just sits on my desk and occasionaly moves to a shelf or box. |

i may be the only person on earth who uses the mouse, for web-surfing at least. my real mouse died in an unfortunate collision with a wall, so until i get a new one, i use the wacom mouse. its a little squirrelly, but it works well enough on my 6x8 intuos. i find using my stylus to navigate a bit tedious sometimes. _________________ evil will always triumph over good, because good is dumb.

I don't use the wacom mouse (why would I want to sit a mouse on top of my wacom?), but when painting I use the mouse about as much as the wacom. |
