My sugestion, for what it's worth--
Chose a Wacom for preference
Don't get carried away with your first purchase--if you find yourself really compatable with a tablet I feel sure you will justify upgrading later if you discover benefits in the upgrade.

Hi Andras,

I have a a Wacom bamboo fun with sliderpad and
4 buttons(programmable)and it works great with
artrage (with some exercise)
I use it in 3d-coat and Silo,but not in Moi

The simple version is the Wacom bamboo without
buttons,no eraser tip
It's pressure sensitive(512 levels)

I have read that the Intuos series have 1024 pressure levels
and can use an optional airbrush(not a real airbrush)

The next tabletpc i will buy is the HP Touchmart tx2 NotebookPC,
which you can use with a pen or your fingers(yes it cost)

you have no money for a tablet but your prog Pro Concept is 1280 Euros without taxes !!! ;)
Else Wacom wacom wacom !
It's indestructible.

Wacom Intuos is the best - I used an A5 Intuos 1 for many years with no troubles. Upgraded to an A4 Intuos 3 last year. I also have an A5 Intuos 3 I use at work for everything from ProE through CorelDraw and just general Windows and MS Office stuff.

My first Wacom was the ArtPad with 512 pressure levels. Then I got an Intuos, the difference with 1024 pressure levels was very apparent. A colleague at work got a cheaper tablet and regretted it. He doesn't use it now.


So my advice is, if you are sure you will use the tablet then:

If you can afford it go for the Intuos. If you can't afford it, wait, keep saving and go for the Intuos. Or, buy cheaper software then go for an Inutos :-)
