Review Summary

Great product, Haven't tried the painting feature yet. I mostly use it for "cutting out" in Photoshop and it is many, many times faster for closeup detailed work than my optical mouse. This is where the analogy of using the pen/pencil instead of a mouse really pays off. In addition to working great for small detailed irregular shapes, it also works incredibly well with the pen tool for creating smooth curves. Again, it is much better than using a mouse since it is much more "intuitive" to use a pen/pencil for certain things than a mouse. Still a little pricey, but I'm hoping it will be worthwhile in the long run.
