In the Preference application, there are two modes for using the Intuos. Pen mode and Mouse mode. Pen mode is the default. In Pen mode the entire area is mapped to your screen so there really is not much you can do about adjust how the pen behaves in navigation. In Mouse mode, the pen emulates a mouse. So where you place the pen on the tablet doe snot affect the position of the cursor, it is only the movement of the pen that affects the position of the cursor. Since the tablet is no longer mapped to the screen in Mouse mode, you now have the option of setting acceleration and speed.
