Anyone use one of those drawing tablet pen things?

I have had this damn thing forever! My mouse just broke, so I haven't had time to run out and grab another, so I am using this tablet..LOL

How long does this thing take to get used to? It seems to be taking forever, though I am taking this time while I am without mouse, to use it and hopefully get comfortable with it. Anyone else use one?

get the hang of it yet?

If not... Open up minesweeper. the game play will get you warmed up a little quicker.

For me, it takes a day or 2 to get used to if I've been using a mouse for a while. BUt when I originally got my tablet it took about a week before I had it down pat. Once you get used to it though, it's so much better than using a mouse.

I just bought a new mouse today... though I must say, that tablet pen hurts my fingers when I was using it!

But, at the end of the day, I can say that I think I got the hang of it.

I have had one for a couple years, just can't remember which box it is in. Switched to a trackball.

Ya a trackball is the way to go, I have one of those pen things under my bed that I used for about 2 hours one time

Once you get used to a trackball, you have total control on your graphics, the only way to fly. Not sure I used my pad that long before putting in the archives of toys I just had to get.
