I think I'd just bring my own mouse to work.  Seriously, I think it would take years to retrain myself to using anything but a mouse.

Subject: [AE] Wacom vs Mouse

Hi, just bought the intuos pro medium. Trying to get into the habit of working soley with a Wacom Tablet. I don't paint, but I composite, animate, roto and track. Rarely used it before, but have been freelancing in a place that doesn't even have a mouse, so I want to make a smooth transition.

I find it a struggle using the pen buttons. I set them to right click (the button near the tip) and scroll/pan (the other one). It's makes me move my hand slightly (and the cursor as a result) when I want to use them. 

Scrolling with the mouse wheel is a feature I use in Ae all the time. I am missing finer control there. Right click is also used a lot. 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?
