Gimma all those tools...  
We just had a presentation about using a wacom, a graphic tablet and damn, it looks so good. The thing is, the last tiem I tried that I failed miserably, but that was years ago and I feel that the tablets are better now thn they used to be.

But gad, sharing a tablet with the whole company seems extreme. The thing is, the tablet we have costs 500 Euros. Which is way too much.

My question is this. Have any of you experience with a graphic tablet and can recommend one that is not quite that expensive?

I did buy a cheaper one for 60€ once but...it really wasn't great. And I had a feeling it wasn't just my lacking skills, you really had to press the pen on the tablet, it was just awkward. It was an AIPTEK by the way, and I did hear you can work really well with those but I guess you'll have to spend a little more than 60€ then :-)(Mine's this: http://www.amazon.de/Aiptek-8000-Hyperpen-mechanisch-Kabel/dp/B000308YZU/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=ce-de&qid=1204025978&sr=8-4 ) Or maybe I was just really unlucky.

From what I've heard, Wacoms really are the way to go. Very, very expensive... but...

Yes, I do. For some reason it doesn't work properly anymore but you could try it if you want. Maybe you can fix it? :-p

WOW! A3????

I'd have to find the cables and everything first but I'll be trying to hunt them down ;-)
