I have an old 6x8 Wacom pen tablet (the all white one), and it kicks ass for graphical design work. *Anyone* doing any visual design should check them out... it's light years beyond using a mouse.

However, I've found that even my medium-sized tablet is WAY the hell too big and inconvenient to use it for GUI navigation. I've even tried their "virtual-size" thing to minimize the length my arm has to travel... it's just so much easter to grab a mouse or trackball set to high sensitivity and use it than it is to grab a pen and use it.

My ideal solution is to use a tablet for design, and a trackball for navigation... but I have big hands, and all the recent trackball designs suck-ass for me :/ Give me a big ball, not a fucking tiny-ass thumb-ball!

I smell an AC/DC song somewhere in my post
