For the money, the Genius MousePen graphics tablet is a good deal. Since I've never worked with one of these before, the small investment allowed me to familiarize myself on how it works before plunging into a larger investment, if required. from Amazon.com This is my first time to use a mousepen or graphic tablet of any kind. The low price was what stole me over. from Amazon.com This is the first tablet I've ever owned and my overall impression is that I got what I paid for. For 42 bucks, I got a functional tool that tried to pass itself off as much more, but isn't. If you NEED an 8x6 board for whiteboarding simple drawing applications, as I do, use this and count yourself lucky you found it. If you're looking to get into serious illustration uses, or if you're a wannabe Photoshop ninja, STAY AWAY!!! from Amazon.com I followed Richard Nydegger's advice BUT! Geniusnet.com finally updated their Windows XP drivers (2/11/09), SOOO I downloaded the new driver, REPLACED the old batteries on both mouse and pen, and I'm loving it!! For the money, I think I made a pretty good choice... from Amazon.com the tablet does a good job for its affordable price.there were no instructions on how to change the pen battery. i broke the pen trying to insert a paper clip in one of its holes. genius tech support finally told me to just grab the two halfs of the pen and pull hard - that did the trick. from Amazon.com All in all the Genius 8x6 delivers decent performance for the price point. For home and hobby use this tablet is great. from Amazon.com When you're accustomed to real-world drawing and painting on large canvases, your brain will want a big tablet even though technically you don't need it. I was thrilled that this one gives me even more work space than it looked like. There are Genius tablets on Amazon that have much better reviews, but the affordable ones usually have a smaller workspace. My USER EXPERIENCE with this tablet gets five stars. from Amazon.com I have found my Genius Digital pen, pad & mouse set to be a huge help in learning to work with graphics on my computer. Set-up and installation was extremely easy. from Amazon.com I have a Wacom tablet that's 3x5 and this genius Mousepen tablet. I installed both drivers, and there was a huge conflict in drivers, forcing me to use only the Mousepen for the longest time. from Amazon.com I strongly suggest you read the review titled: 5.0 out of 5 stars beware of negative reviews. I read the review and went ahead and purchased the Genius MousePen 8x6. I did everything suggested in the review and the devise works like a dream. from Amazon.com
