I have a Wacom bamboo too. LOL.
And I have a BIG Silverstar.

Both good tablets to work or play with, but when it gets serious-serious? => The mouse takes over.
Buy one, you can not go wrong with a Wacom bamboo as they do not cost an arm and a leg, but do not expect too much.
Its in the fingertips, the mouse or tablets are helper-tools to get it on screen.
Ha-ha-ha-, and in the end? 
The mouse always wins.
Just my 2 cents (after 4 years of use)
