I use a wacom 100 % of the time. Cinema 4D, P-shop, internet, excel, etc.
I'm not really sure of the model name, but the area is 5.5"x4.5", which might seems relatively small, but works out fine.

I switched to the tablet because I was having CTS issues when using a mouse - once I got used to it, I find it preferable to a mouse - not just in comfort, but also in screen movement.

The only thing that it won't do well is REALLY precise work, as the pen tends to jitter a bit in your hand at all times (and not like a mouse can "hover" over a point on screen when you remove your hand from it).

The worst thing about it is that whenever someone comes to my desk and wants to sketch something on paper, they usually grab the tablet pen and start drawing on paper with it - fools.
