Soon as I saw these new graphics tablets were out from Wacom I couldn’t wait to get my hands on one. Combining a extra-large touch-pad plus a graphics tablet all in one sounded just fab.

After an impatient wait of a week, mine turned up this morning and I love it already!

The Bamboo has all the gesture functionality found on my Apple MacBook Pro’s native trackpad and iPhones, so its almost second nature using it. I find it more responsive that my aging 6″ Wacom tablet that I normally carry with the MacBook. Also the new “paper-like” surface is wonderful to draw on.
