I did not get the extra tips? Did I throw them away or maybe I bought a cheaper version? Mine is a 5×7, I think. Please post what the special pen feels like. I have used the Graphire, two versions and liked them a lot but the Intuos is way better. It is very close to feeling like a real pen, sometimes better. : -)
