the size when using, and the size when packing are the two big annoyances about mice, and even though they pack better i've never like tablets much at all except for freehand sketching.
i mostly was just curious, since i do almost all of my work on desktops (and taking my flash drive between them)
ill check out that link a bit later and see what it does for me. it would be great if there was one that i could get a full 256c palette on tho.
