Currently I am thinking about picking up a Wacom tablet and everything I have read in the past suggests the 4×5 for photo editing (my primary usage) and smaller displays. The conundrum I have is that I run two displays at 1600×1200 and wonder if the 4×5 might be too small.

So what I am wondering is do the Wacom tablets let me pick up the pen and continue drawing a line after repositioning my hand/fingers? I do this all the time with my mouse when acceleration fails to get me across the screen to coordinate my mouse pad position with my on screen position and would like to know if this carries over.

Any input or thoughts will be appreciated.

enjoy,

Sean
