Basically, yes. From my earlier comments - if one is an 'artist' - draws, paints, etc. from scratch, I can see where a larger tablet would be useful in that it would approximate an 'easel'. However, if most of your work is touching up photos, then much of the time is spent making a selection or touching up faces, etc. and that stuff is done more easily in a zoom mode anyway, so that the real benefit of the tablet is the stylus where _most_ people (some here are really good at handling a mouse) have more control and the pressure sensitivity is helpful, whereas the size of the tablet is not. After having seen and used the larger tablets, I'd still opt for the 4x5 even if they were the same price.
