Read Summary at the bottom if it's too long...
Contents:
In the box were two CDs; one for the driver and one for a free drawing program. The driver installs with a program that serves no other purpose but to use up hard drive space. But of course, if you uninstall it, you uninstall the driver as well. The free drawing software is no improvement from Microsoft Paint, a couple of brushes and a line tool is all you get before they ask for an upgrade. I instead downloaded Serif DrawPlus Starter (free) which I'd recommend even if you don't have a tablet.
Price:
I paid £60 for this tablet, and I see they have the cheek to put it up even more! Putting it simply, for the quality of the product the price is way too much. For £50 on Play.com you can get a Wacom (trusted brand) Pen Tablet, which I've seen is a better product. It's worth noting that I saw the Wacom after I received the tablet and that I opted for this due to there being no negative reviews. If I had seen the Wacom before however, I'd have no second thoughts about buying it over this.
The Product:
The tablet itself is made out of cheap plastic, which attracts fingerprints and dirt easily. Drawing on the tablet is far from pleasurable as it's not very smooth. The pen is horrible. It's too small and it's made out of worse materials than the tablet. The buttons are awkwardly placed so that you have to move your hand completely to get to them. When I got the tablet there was a sheet of plastic that was apparently meant to make my life easier. I took it out almost instantaneously. On it were shortcuts that you'd press and a relevant program would open - hooray! Unfortunately the icons looked older than me. They didn't even work properly. A couple of icons were: Spades (Microsoft game), Cut (didn't work), Zoom (didn't work) and Microsoft Excel. Seriously? Excel? Why would I use a drawing tablet for Excel... Granted you can use the tablet as a mouse, but that's only for convenience, a regularly mouse is 10 times quicker!
Use:
Apart from the surface of the tablet being slightly bumpy, it's use for drawing is mediocre. I'm far from an awesome artist, but I'm sure the best in the world couldn't draw a masterpiece on this. Paying for some software will probably make it more practical, but that's just more money. I found that with use on a less powerful computer (1GB RAM, 2Ghz processor) that this was sluggish and often just stopped altogether. I tried it on a faster computer and the problems still appeared, pen would skip (producing dotted lines) and would stop altogether. It takes a minute to kick in after start up also.
Summary:
Made of cheap plastic, pen is horrible, driver installs with bloat-ware, bundled software is useless, mediocre at drawing, consider Wacom Pen before buying, if this drops to 30/35 pounds then consider it, at 60+ pounds then consider others...
Note:
If you can, please please look at a few tablets before buying (Wacom, Genius, Trust etc.), £60 is a lot of money...

The widescreen aspect ratio of this tablet matches my monitor quite well. A good response on the pen pressure. I found the button areas on three sides of the drawing area to be a bit of a distraction, but that is a personal workflow opinion. The action of the pen on the surface is reasonably smooth; not up to the professional kit but certainly good enough for amateur/hobbyist use.
If you are like me and buy things with the extra hope that they will work under Linux, then avoid this. It is purely a Windows tablet and despite Linux responding to all the signals, Genius won't go the extra mile and write the driver ... I've already asked them ... which is a shame as this is a nice product and responds well under Windows.

Well the word I would use for this tablet is in the name "GENIUS".
It wasn't the one I wanted but is definately better than that one I initially wanted. It installed very easily and I was using it on my new manga debut software instantly.
I would recommend this to anyone looking for a tablet at a reasonable price.

Works fine witout any problems
Used the tablet mainly to facilitate communication on a WebEx meeting and it worked fine on the Whiteboard. There was no issue installing the driver and it worked first time.
