Half price, in fact. The Intuos 2 pen has a fault line around its middle. If you tend to draw heavy-handidly as I do, you might want to check out the Intuos 3 - I think they've redesigned the structure a little so that the damn things don't break in half after 6 months of regular use.
you should reset his post count I thought the intuos 3 is hyper sensitive compared to the 2? I'm buying mine for the buttons... I used to use an intuos2 A5 at my old office, wasn't half bad with the nice tilt function and all that. But I always cursed the resoloution on the damn thing: drawing a straight line in photoshop…
