Well, one of the main advantages of pens and tablets over the mouses and
mousepads is that they allow much more control of the drawing movements
(provided you adjust the many controls of the pen and tablet correctly).
Usually tablets also offers a higher precision than the usual mouse and
mousepads, which may improve your final result. So pen and tablets come in
handy too if you are digitizing with a raster file appearing on screen,
not only when you are digitizing from printed map. You don't need to get
a huge tablet however. Even a small A6 tablet would be enough; if it's
that small however you should rather buy a professional model with higher
precision and a good pen, rather than a consumer model. I'm sure there are
solutions involving tactile screens, but it is surely much more expansive
than the traditional tablet.
Before doing anything else, did you try to tweak your mouse preferences ?
this may already help.

Objet : MI-L On-screen digitiser for MapInfo- what kind?
I'm using MI 8 with the nifty auto-node feature, but I find that my hand
wobbles too much on the mouse for drawing large complex polylines (and
polygons) such as contours.
Is there some kind of fine pen device or whatever that I can get, that
interfaces properly with MI? I don't need (or at least don't think I
need) a digitising tablet as all digitising is done with rasters on
screen.
