Does someone here use tablet with Maya?

I have one but I haven't tried to use it with Maya.

I use a Wacom Intuos A4, it comes with a 5 button mouse too.
But since I only have received the activation key today, I can't really say anything about using the pen with let's say paint effects...

But if you are considering to buy a tablet and want to know if something particular works with maya; just ask and I will test it for you.

the pen works the same as a mouse, but its just harder to do things like model, but easier for paintfx

I use it to draw my profiles and outlines for my characters.

Basicly, after I draw my side, and front views on paper, I place the paper under the plastic sheet, then draw my outlines and control curves with my Wacom pen.

It's just more fluid for me.
