although I've already said a couple times on this list that I'm not a huge fan of it, the monoprice one might be worth checking into if your just doing photoshop and AE work at home.  I feel like the model I got was a little glitchy which is why I just shoveled out the money for an Intous 5 but for the price it worked out great as long as you're not trying to do incredibly precise work.  also monoprice's return policy is great if you don't like it

Personally, not a fan. I've has Wacom's for over ten years now and my go to is an Intuos3. That matte finish on the drawing surface was sublime. Check eBay for a cheap one and you would be plum happy. :)

Cheers.

Anyone using any of the new Bamboo tablets. I heard the first generation ones really sucked.  I use just replaced my intous 4 with an intous 5 at work, but don't have anything at home.  Are the Bamboo's decent for some Photoshop and AE work at home? It isn't that often, so I don't see the point of spending $350 on the intous.

Thanks,
