I have to throw in my $.13 (inflation and all) and toot my Intuos's horn. It's a 6x8 and I love the little thing. It's responsive as hell and works beautifully for painting hair and that sort of thing. Now if only I could actually do that. :P You might want to poke around an auction site or two as well. I found mine on Amazon auctions and bought it for less than half of what those sell for (i.e. got it for under $150). You never know what you'll find.
