[comp.sys.amiga] Graphics Tables -- Request for survey

koo@tcville.HAC.COM (08/08/90)

I am tired of drawing with the mouse, and am thinking of getting a graphics
tablet.  Can anyone please give me their opinions/experiences on the
available tablets?  I'd like something as close to a pencil as possible.
Questions:

    How hard do you have to press on an Easyl tablet for it to draw?
        Do you get tired of pressing after a while?
        (I draw lightly, will the pressure sensitive tablet be a problem?)
        Does the cord affect the drawing or get in the way frequently?

    If you have a Kurta tablet, what is the angle that the stylus have to
        be to get it to register on the screen?
        (I think it'd be hard if it had to be perpendicular to the paper.)
    How reliable is the cordless approach? Do you get glitches?

    Does anyone know anything about these new Summagraphics tablets?

    Are these tablets compatible with the Amiga 2500/030?  Which port
    do they use and what gender?

    Please e-mail me....I'll post a summary. Thanks in advance!
