Hey Rudy, I got the 6x8 Intuos3. I think I should qualify this though.
Initially I was going to go with the 4x6, but went with the lager
version instead and am glad I did, here's why:

When I was using my track ball, I had the speed of the pointer set to
it's highest level. I like to be able to move the cursor quickly
without having to make a ton of turns on the ball. However, I could
still be accurate even though the pointer moved quite fast. Call it a
"gift," I don't know.

That being said, I currently have my 6x8 tablet set up so that the
upper left quadrant of the tablet (about a 3x4 area) is mapped to the
entire display. I find I can move the cursor anywhere on the display
without having to slide my hand all over the tablet this way (at the
expense of a bit of accuracy of course). However, If I need to be
extremely accurate, I can quickly remap the display to the entire pad
again.

Just something some people might not realize you can do with these
things.
