So, what's the difference between the Wacom intuos and the graphire tablet, other than the pretty colours for the graphire?
I'm looking at buying myself a new tablet and am looking for pressure-sensitivity, durability and overall flexibility in what this thing can do for me, and more in terms of sketching on-screen rather than tracing. I guess this is also a reccomendation question.
Thanks for reading, considering and answering in advance,

Hmm...I'll take this one guys (Ian shouts over his sholder)
The Intuos DOES have better sensitivity and reslolution. HOWEVER it has been debated whether PhotoShop users even NEED the amount of res and sens that the Intuos provides. The Graphire is pretty =) and comes with a mouse in some cases (i think). I also think it comes bundled with more software than the intuos but again (not positive). If you are just starting out with digital art and need something to learn on, (and money is tight) I think that Graphire is the way to go.
(hope that helps)
