If you want to use it for tracing then get the big one.

Yes, I'm assuming those are dimensions in inches? Although looking at mine, the tablet itself is about 10 inches by 14 inches and the 'active' area 6 inches by 9 inches.
The extra nibs will be nice, as the softer ones do wear. (The graphire does NOT have replaceable nibs, AFAIK)
Consider also that you will use this as a mouse pad as well, using the 5 button mouse on it, so it will park in that location of your desk space.
My graphire is a nice size that fits in my backpack on top of my notebook, so that might be a consideration.

Very good! Yes, portability is definitely a consideration, and the one I'm getting has dimensions that will fit in my laptop bag perfectly so I think I'm good to go.
Now I'm just stoked as all get out and can't wait to get my check next week. I might just buy it this weekend and pay off the credit card with the bonus check... yup... that's what I'm going to do. I so can't wait to start playing with it.
Thanks to everyone who helped me make the decision even easier and focus on what I really needed. I appreciate the help.
I've just noticed that the mouse has 5 buttons! I don't use the wacom mouse at all, I find it a bit slow.
Hm... Part of the reason I really liked the idea of getting that mouse was because it is integrated, but I don't like slow. Is it battery free as well? I thought that was a feature of both the pen and the mouse that Wacom puts out which is another huge reason why I like that mouse. I'll definitely give you guys a review of the hardware once it arrives in my hot little hands.
