Just a few of the past happy threads that involve TABLETS and do not involve MOSES.

lol thanks reinman

Long and short of it: though other brands (or even the more affordable BAMBOO series) will do the job, NO ONE has complained about owning a pro-level WACOM device. And a BIG pad area means you are going to be moving your hand/wrist much more to cover the actual "screen area". Fine if you are a person used to normal sketching/drawing, but if you want economical movements to give you the same thing, stick to the smaller sized tablets.

Avoid the little green tablets, btw.

I just bought a Bamboo last week.
Man its cool!
I've only had a little time to play with it but already it seems a huge timesaver, lots of fun too!

Cost me $150AUD so easily will come under your budget.

The main thing I got out of talking to people from here, buy a wacom, and nothing else.
Makes sense, it is simple to use, works perfectly and I can't wait til I get the chance to sit and play with it properly.

don't buy anything that isn't wacom, all the rest is crap

That's because it is nae Scottish!!!!!

Ya, I just got a wacom bamboo pen ... thinking bout getting a touch cause im lazy and dont wanna mess with a trackpad on my laptop etc... lol

but i am using it to see if I can get used to the whole table thing and eventually i want to get a wacom cintiq! .. lol

Thanks all for the info. I went for the medium size one plus it looks good to
