Thanks guys! It looks like I'll go with the Intuos 3 as it comes highly recommended by the three of you.

One of my main desires at the moment is to be able to do selective sharpening of image components. The lasso tool is just too hit and miss with a mouse.

I'm considering purchasing a graphics tablet for use with Photoshop. I've been looking at the WACOM Graphire 3 & 4 (6 x 8).

Does anyone have any anecdotal experience they can relay? What's the difference between the '3' model and the '4' model? It looks like the '4' is twice the price, but LPI, accuracy and sensitivity appear to be identical to the '3' (at least on the B&H website).

I recall doing quite a bit of research on this one last year, and ended up with the Intuos3 6x8 tablet. I don't recall exactly why, though I am quite happy with it.

The 6x11 tablet wasn't out yet, or I'd be looking seriously at that one instead, since I use two monitors.
As a matter of fact, I am looking very seriously at it right now......

The Intuos tablets allow finer pressure control, and I believe also finer resolution than the Graphire tablets.
