Have you tried websites like e-pinions ? Or even contacting the manufacturer for compatibility with PSE, perhaps a 30 day money back no questions asked trial period.. ?

I use a Trust tablet and pen/mouse (not sure of the model, huge thing probably a bit too large, but that's what happens when you let someone buy it you for Christmas).

The mouse is rather annoying in that for me it is virtually impossible to double click, but that could well be my enormous hamsfisted hands.

The biggest problem is switching, as I am relatively new to a pen, I have been using a mouse for 12 years at least, I am very wary of trying to do anything but specific tasks with the pen and this creates the biggest problem, when you take the mouse off the pad (as per instructions) and start to use the pen my computer, the tablet etc just seem to take an age to recognise the switch, the cursor just sits on my screen looking dumb while I am frantic to get started and of course me being so impatient by the time things happen lawd knows what I have done and half the stuff on my screen is not wanted. Possibly my impatience is the problem and maybe I should persist and start each photo session using the pen, BUT it is supposed to be doing to what I want it too so it is something I have to be aware of when I start.

Just emailed Trust support team and they say it is not compatible with PSE4 , when I asked which Trust Model was the reply was "sorry don`t know and we do not have one suitable for a Macintosh". Considering I am using a Windows XP Home PC I am not sure where he was going.Having not used a tablet before not sure if it will work or not. I assume as long as it is compatible with XP it could be OK but otherwise looks like it will have to be a Wacom. Trust tablet was selling at a good price on Ebay .It seems to be a fairly new model? Any further advice much appreciated. Thanks.

Well I have just finished about half an hour where I purposely used my pen for every action and OMG my fingers are aching I came on here just to check and to be honest I am relieved to be using my mouse.

H77 Must try harder.
