I have the small size too btw. It's small enough to store w/ my laptop so it worked out nicely.

The Graphires are the entry level Wacoms, but they are very nice none the less. What do you plan on using it for tho? If you do graphic work with it I'd save for a 12x12 or a 6x8 at the least. I found the 4x5 a bit cramped. Actually if you do graphic work save up for the Intuos series since it is more sensitive and includes things like tilt sensors (great for digital airbrush), ability to save settings for multiple pens, etc.

If you plan on using it as a replacement mouse, I'd go test it out first. It's very different from using a mouse and takes some getting used to.
