I'm about to buy a tablet. I'm trying to keep it at a few hundred dollars, as I don't want a cheapie, and I couldn't work with a 2"x2" tablet. What does everyone have, tablet-wise? Size? Brand? Cost?

I don't own a Tabley, but from my research; the best ones at reasonable prices are:

Wacom Graphire 6x8 ~$200

Then there are the
Wacom Intuous, but more expensive

i have an Intuous 6x8...works pretty good...takes awhile to get used to though

what kind of an advantage does it have over a graphire? I'm not blowing 2x the money unless it will improve on my sweet skills.

no idea...i don't use it that often. it takes awhile to get the hang of using the pen instead of a mouse and i didn't bother taking the time to switch. most of the time i keep my dinner on it haha

Graphire4. It was $100 at Circuit City and is probably cheaper now...and while I wouldn't mind having a larger one for illo stuff and because I'm on dual monitors now...I can't justify spending money on one when this does everything I need.

I may get something in the next week or so. I'm ready to do some freehand stuff. I'm not as skilt as nda, but I might have some good ideas.
