Wacom Intuos A4 Wide?
- Thread starter SooTyLaD
- Start date
can't seem to find any plans for this to be sold in the uk... anyone know?
right, i looked into it and the special ed is not going to be released in the uk so i went ahead and bought one from the states ( so i have two now 
) - but i just wanted to ask people who use them, i have no usable warranty as obviously is a US one, are these things rock stable like they seem to be or can quirky things occur which will cause me problems leaving me up poo creak?

My old A6 one has lasted me 9 months no problems but I hardly used it.
Current 6x11 is going well after 15 days, wow just saying that seems like its half the length of time I've had it!
If it does go wrong your only option is to send it back to USA direct or to someone who lives in USA, what I have planned if anything goes wrong.
I've not heard of any problems with them though, seem quite sturdy

Spec Edition does look nice for being black, and would go nice if I had a macbook black but macbook pro, Dell 24" and 6x11 Wacom does me nicely All different colours but I've never really looked at them all together until now, you've just made me notice how odd they all look! Naughty! 
Nice to know Choas lol, I definitely wont be using this as a tray for food though lol
Need to set myself daily things to draw, let me know when you get your tablet QuickSilver, can set each things to draw every day, stops me from drawing the same type of things that way and not exploring any other styles!

main reason I never got an A4 one, space!
yeah i know but i'm just saying could someone measure the actual grey bit in the middle? mind seems a fair bit wider and was wondering if uk and us sizes are the same thats all
the us and uk sites quote different active area sizes ya see
another quick question about the intuos3...
the overlay bit in the middle (the lighter active area) can be lifted up at the bottom left, is this how it is supposed to be? is it a replaceable part like a snap on phone cover or is mine missing some glue?

It's replacable, and it's also so you can put things underneath and trace them.
I love my wacom tablet, or at least I did until someone stole my pen.

How would you trace something though , you cant see through it?
Can I stick it back down somehow as I dont like it flapping about :/
