A lot of people like tablets, but I can work faster with a mouse.  Most of what I would use with a tablet is cutting masks in Photoshop for faking 3D moves on stills (The Kid Stays in the Picture effect).  I lost a lot of time going back and forth between mouse and tablet.  I should add that I’m left handed with the pen, and right handed with the mouse.  The times I’ve tried the tablet while my hand was still on the mouse, the cursor jumps all around the screen.

I’m not an advocate for control surfaces, like audio mixing board with multiple faders either.  I’m used to "rubber band" mixing of faders with a mouse (which is easily doable in Pr, even though it has real-time mixing capabilities using faders as well), because visual editing of audio is so intuitive.

It also may be worth considering whether carpal tunnel is an issue for you and made better or worse by tablet vs. mouse.

Do any of you have a recommendation for a pen setup?maybe pen holding posture that could help make this easier? Or is it just something to bare through for a while? What do you use? What is your tablet position setup?
