To good to be true? Can it possibly be any good?....for that money, dose it matter?

What do you guys think?

[tonymidd]

It looks very like the Medion I use but mine's not wireless but then i've had it 4/5 years and would not be without it. At that price what have you got to loose? It's not even a night down the pub with a couple of mates.

[PaulChubb]

...Sold....mine will be here in 7 to 10 days. I'll let you know how I get on. But for now I will hold of kicking my self for buying the wacome for 3 times the price at half the size.

[StuG]

I've got the Wacom one yep about half the size (I only paid twice that price though ;)c :)) I love it.

I think we've used 'Trust' mice before so I'm sure it'll be ok.

I own a logitech roller ball mouse which i find far easier than a normal mouse, i feel i have much more control....

What i'd like to know is are these 'matts' better than any type of mouse.....if so then i'll be ordering one myself???

If you can use a Graphics tablet they are magic but if you can't, and some people can't, they are an expensive pain in the butt; unfortunately there's only one way to find out. At least at this price you've not a lot to loose and if you really like it and feel you'll have a need for the extra features of a Wacom you can spend a lot more with confidence. I'd certainly not be without mine, very rarely use a mouse now.

Cheers Tony......i knew you'd be the one to come up with an answer.....:clapping:

[pegasusl]

:confused: Just to say...

I HOPE this is no longer the case..but the first and only graphics tablet I have bought to date is a TRUST.

It works great in windows, and the setup / installation was easy. In the "Trust software" the pressure sensitivity works a treat. The ONLY program I have that doesn't recognise the TRUST pad is...

PhotoShop CS2


Doesn't come up under the list of devices that can be used, and all pressure sensitive reliant options in any of the brushes simply will not function. The pen will however act as a non pessure sensitive "pointer".

If there is something I have missed and anyone knows how to get round this PLEASE let me know cos my graphic tablet is in the wardrobe now :confused:

What I'm saying I suppose, is check it's compatible with PS CS2 if thats what you're using.

Try checking the Trust web site for a more up to date driver and/or reinstaling the driver off your tablet's CD.

Thanks for the suggestion...

I eMailed TRUST, and they have responded by telling me they had been made aware of this problem for my model of tablet... They have upgraded the driver software and given me the link.

I'll give it a whirl and report back.... Just might get usd to using a tablet after all :Dm Think it's a bit of a learning curve till you get used to them but people say they're much easier after a while.

CHEERS

[pegasusl]

I've installed the updated driver and the tablet now works a treat with CS2 including the pressure sensitivity features.

Their support was very good too. Quick and helpful responses.

From my (now up to date) experience i can recommend their tablets.

Thanks for your help too Tony :Dm

[PaulChubb]

One day I'll learn to keep my mouth shut....

Moral of the story is to order yours before telling others about the offer. I saw a magazine subscription offer that seemed incredibly low, compared to the cover price. I placed my order and then queried the price. It was the correct price, but I still can't work out the logic. 6 issues of the magazine cost about 1/3 the price of 12. Why would anybody take out a 12 month sub on that basis?
