    the intuos really is worth the extra money... i haven't tried the newer generation graphire's, but i have the 4x5 intuos both at home and at work and it's great.

    the pen itself is a little heavier than the graphire's, so the extra weight makes it a little more comfortable to manuver and hold.

    also the surface is a litle more comfortable, and it comes with buttons you can assign any sort of hotkeys you'd like to.

    i assigned one to a photoshop action that takes the current selection, copys merged, creates a new image, resizes the canvas size by 2x2, creates a levels layer at "0.8", then brings up the save for web dialog box to save as a PNG (for bringing PNGs into flash.)

    really handy, and you avoid having to get the vulcan death grip on the keyboard to do save for web.
