Just taking an informal poll of sorts.
I finally picked up a Wacom Intuos 5 Medium (which is the same thing as the Pro, I know all the other minor differences, but I won't outline them here). It's my first tablet and I'm just working on getting used to it.
I'm looking forward to (eventually) faster and better retouching time. I can already see the potential, but of course it's taking a little time to gain the dexterity for it.
So, who retouches on tablets? Do you have any secrets? I'm really curious about what people map their buttons and scroll wheels to on this thing.
On the pen I've kept click, right mouse click, and Pan Scrolling (which makes this a much easier device to use one handed).
And I've started to map different buttons to different apps. Of course most notably Photoshop.
I will mention that I have some problems with the touch implementation though as it's not the same as Apple's. Specifically in regards to gestures. There is no 3 finger swipe left and right to change Spaces. And for some reason it doesn't do click and drag. And unfortunately there is no way I can see to change those options so ironically I have my Magic Trackpad nearby to switch to for certain types of movement.
