I got a Wacom Bamboo about a month ago for 10 euros. I couldnt let it lay. I love the tablet, I have no idea why people are so negative about it? It is great to begin with! BTW: Small is good! the big ones really are annoying to use for beginners. If I were you, I'd start with a wacom bamboo or anything like that, start cheap and if you like the feel of tablets, go bigger.
