I was just wondering... HOW MANY OF YOU HAVE TABLETS!! I don't have one my parents say it's too expensive and everytime I turn around on this website another member has got one! You can just comment if you've got one or if you have anything to say about them... at least maybe a description of one!...(I know it may seem stupid... but I'm curious)

I have a tablet. I wuv it so. I can't imagine going back to drawing with a mouse. It's a Wacom Graphite Tablet, the smallest one they had. And the least expensive of it's kind!

A $50 tablet is better than no tablet at all. (Mine is a $50 refurbished wacom artpad II, before the graphires came out. It was definitely worth it, and once I save up enough I'm gonna go for one of those bigger intuos with all the cool things like spray and whatnot.)
Hmmm, I wonder if they'll donate one to me if I code JTablet to support those features...

I have a Wacom Graphire 2, like most people here. It was 99$ and I really can't see anyone using or needing a bigger one unless they were doing serious, professional graphic design. It works great for me. ^^

i have a wacom intuos =D it was ?150, but worth every penny.
i can probably draw at about the same level with my mouse, but it takes so much longer that i just can't be bothered.

the ultimate wet dream for any computersketcher
has to be the Cintiq series from wacom
18inch pressure sensitive screen
i pencilled once on one of those tings at a computerfair
and it rocks
ROCKS I TEll Ya
tablet pc is niffty too
almost all of them come with wacom touchscreens like the cintinq series Only smaller
12 or 13 inch orso
but the have the same level of sensitivity as the cintinq's (512levels of pressure)
only cintiq works with different pens 1 for colors 1 for inkt 1 for airbush - like the intuos series
and the tablet pcs only work with 1 kind of pen
but i know nothing yet about the lpi on those things, on the cintinq its 508 Lines per inch on my own tablet its a 1000
tablets Rock@!

I want a tablet. My friend Becca (quintessence to you guys) seems to be plotting on buying me one. I'm trying to talk her out of wasting her money on me, but she won't listen. -_- So I stick to mouse and trackball, depending on which computer I'm on.
