I couldn't afford the intuos, but I got a Wacom Graphire 2. I like it.

I have a Wacom Volito and it's ok too. But I think it's available only in Europe?
The pen is not as good as the one of the Graphire.
I think the pen nibs are not meant to be replaced ...
Afaik the pen is only supposed to work for the 2 year warranty time.

So go for the Graphire 2 or Intuos 2 if you can afford it.
Wacom is the only way to go.

go on ebay and bid for a wacom intous, 6x8 or 9x12 is good enough.

I made a mistake of getting 4X5 for my first tablet. Those are good for editing photos... thats it. Have 6X8 now - works well, although it would be easier to make more accurate strokes on a larger surface.

my 2c.
