Afternoon scribblers
Can anyone recomend a good light pen (unsure if they're called that - the kind of thing you scribble onto a tablet and it draws the image on the screen).
Not sure whether the forum allows you to specify a particular brand, but I'd appreciate any feedback.
Thanks lots.
The Fool.
Wacom, the bigger the better. :)

Wooki. Actually, it's more of a light sabre. But might give you more respect from your co-workers.

As for 'bigger the better' for Wacoms, I wouldn't agree. I want from a 6x9 to a 9x12. With a dual screen setup, unless you want to abandon proportional mapping, you lose a third of the actual tablet area to supporting the extra width anyways. And the 6x9's footprint worked much better for my desk area.

I don't like big wacoms either. It means I have to move my whole arm when working on something. I'm lazy. If I can get away with just moving my hand, I pick that.
