Bought this for my wife and she has very sensitive skin. This is a replacement for one she used for 10 years before it wore out. Best product and price point for the utility that has been delivered from this light weight reliable product. I was very happy to see that I could buy another one after ten years. Thank you for carrying this great shaver.

Researched several brands and talked with BestBuy associates. I'm a photographer with 28 years of oil painting experience. I've designed logos for military and civilian organizations and know how to paint and draw the old fashion way. Combining the technology of computer science, the skills of an old school artist and the cost saving of not having to purchase supplies is the preferred method of working from my desk.
The pad has already paid for itself with the signature logos I've created for photographers.
Thanks Wacom and Best Buy.

At the time I did a search for the item very little could be found. Not a week later, the item was on sale and I could have purchased this for half the price I paid.
Works OK or I would have returned it.

Been a pro photo dude for a bunch of years. I've seen many more expensive cameras with much less to offer. The Sony Alpha a6000 does a great job of providing the professional images required to make my customers happy.
This unit is a perfect fit for shooters at any level.
Menu was difficult to learn, but worth the time and effort.

The supplied battery has a small limited amount of shots that a full charge can give. The fact that the kit does not come with an external battery charger severely limits the shooting time available. The solution to the problem is this charger and an additional battery.
Now I've been able to shoot on location, keep a spare battery charged or a used battery charging. Make the assignment much easier.

PURCHASED 32GB CARD. PUT IT INTO PLAYER,RIPPED SONGS,DON'T SEE SONGS IN PLAYER. HOW DO I PLAY NEW SONGS?

No matter through device ripping songs must be saved to a format that is compatible with the device you are going to play it on. If your play can not see the save format you will need to convert the format. There are many converters available online.

The shell and the pen of this Intuos ... is it hard plastic or that weird silicone skin like textured?

The surface has the same texture as most pads of a laptop. The pen feels like a large pen but you will get use to it after a short while. This device can actually replace a mouse and with enough practice (about three days exclusive tablet use) you will find it hard to return to the mouse.

If i buy this will its be worth it ? I dont draw like large thing so i dont want the medium but would i like the medium be

I found that printing an image (drawing) I like and then taping it to my pad is a great way to practice drawing strokes. Trace the drawing and watch the results as you go on the screen. With enough practice you will find your best position and stroke technique.

Does Best Buy sell Sigma lenses?

On Sigma's website they have an option to "locate a dealer". Just below their online dealers (Adorama and BHphoto), Best Buy is listed. I'd prefer to buy from Best Buy, but I see no indication that Best Buy does stock Sigma products. Would Best Buy order a certain sigma lens if I requested it?
Best buy does carry Sigma lenses. Shop online at http://www.bestbuy.com/site/searchpage.jsp?st=Sigma+lens&_dyncharset=UTF-8&id=pcat17071&type=page&sc=Global&cp=1&nrp=&sp=&qp=&list=n&af=true&iht=y&usc=All+Categories&ks=960&keys=keys.
