I had a Wacom for ages and after getting used to it, I couldn't be separated from it. But it doesn't like my laptop (it's an old serial version that draws power from the keyboard socket) and so I bought a Packard Bell one. It works fine and does the job, but I don't have the same relationship that I had with the Wacom. So Wacom gets my vote. But the PB only cost about 50 GB Pounds. SO it was a bargain. BUT the major pain is, it doens't have a way of changing it from absolute to relative, so makes it real tricky to use in Bryce. The Wacom let me set each program as one or the other. This seems a good place to ask... How do they work? Can't be magnetic, is it radio waves or something? The wacom was cordless but didn't have a battery in the pen. How how how does it work?
