Hi, I just got a Wacom Bamboo Fun.
Now I need information on installing it.
Specifically on what to do with the wired mouse.
My DH does not go near the computer except to play Spyder Solitaire.
He is left handed and used to the mouse.
My question:
Can I just leave the mouse connected and he uses it when he plays the game?
Will that interfere with the tablet?
The tablet is a surprise and I have not had a chance to do research.
Thanks for your help!

Marie,

I have the Bamboo Fun and I just leave my wired mouse connected with no problems.
Actually what I do is plug the tablet in when needed, (as I don't have enough USB ports). I think once you get the pen near the tablet then it 'takes over' from the mouse, least that is what I've noticed,

hth,
Lisa :)

On my PC I do leave both (mouse and tablet) plugged in. Unless of course I forget and leave the pen on the tablet and start using the mouse, then its a little erratic.
Have fun-you'll love it :)

Thanks Lisa and Jancy, it's good to know that I can keep the mouse connected.
DH will be happy, no change. He don't like change. :rolleyes:
Thanks!
Now to have some FUN for me.
