Drawing Tablet

[Attle]

Hey guys, I'm looking for a drawing tablet, but have no idea what is good and what isn't. I would prefer something about 8.5 x 11, but I know those get expensive. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!

Wacom is the only way to go in my opinion.

wacom is the way to go though I wouldnt know ive never owned one LOL
I use http://cgi.ebay.com/artwork-USB-Graphics-Tablet-Cordless-Stylus-Pen-ca3_W0QQitemZ110397694044QQcmdZViewItemQQptZPCA_Mice_Trackballs?hash=item19b437205c&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1234%7C66%3A2%7C65%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C240%3A1318%7C301%3A0%7C293%3A2%7C294%3A50 except i believe its slightly larger than that one. Foxhound bought it for me years ago and it still works.. mostly lol if youre just looking for one those are cheap but if you want a nice one def go wacom (I really want one)

I got the Wacom Volito, It's pretty cheap but still very good. Wacom is the way to go

I have the Wacom Intuos 3 6x8 tablet and it's great! We got it refurbished for pretty cheap so if you can, look for a good company that sells them refurbished. You'll save a bundle!

Since you seem to have never owned a tablet you do not want to start with a Wacom.
( The reasoning behind this is because you will be rough on your first one without even thinking about it. Then your stuck with a broken $600 tablet if u go with the top end model)
Go here this is a good one that i started with and it works great

Its Cheap and has nice pressure recognition
GREAT for starters
