Hi Everyone
I've been reading this thread with great interest!!

Thanks to everyone with a tablet who have been kind enough to expand on the
virtues and pitfalls.

I am also on the verge of purchasing a graphics tablet:

Question: Can the stylus be "replaced" or upgraded to
something that is easier to work with? I have heard this previously that the
stylus is difficult to work with.

Having never seen one in a store(it seems in Canada you have to
order the product ...(blind so to speak, no stores carry them in stock) and
basically take your chances.

Also I am curious to know what exactly any list members who have the tablets
use them for, ie: where do they come in the handiest and do they justify the
cost?( touchups or actual creating/drawing etc?)

I was thinking about buying graphire or pen partner but am afraid i would
outgrow it too quickly...and maybe should look at a 4x5 or larger and grow
in to it...??????????????

Still sitting on the fence...
