There are a lot of things to like about Wacom Tablets & Photoshop CS3. First and foremost is the quality of the training. It is clear, concise, and to the point. It gives you detailed explanation on the setup and use of the Wacom Tablet. This is primarily handled by Wes Maggio.
Then the use of the tablet with Photoshop is handled by Colin Smith. It is nice that this has been competently updated to reflect the changes in Photoshop CS3. Finally, I think that the easy to load and use interface is one of the best on the market. It puts everything you need at your fingertips. If you own a Wacom Tablet and are having problems setting it up and using it, or you are planning to buy a Wacom Tablet, then Wacom Tablets & Photoshop CS3 is a recommended add-on to save you time and effort.
The retail price of Wacom Tablets & Photoshop CS3 is $39.99 USD and can be purchased from PhotoshopCAFE. I highly recommend this video if you want to get the most from Adobe Photoshop CS3 and your Wacom Tablet.
