Recently I bought the Wacom Bamboo MTE-450. There are several brands that sell this type of device, but i preferred Wacom due to the fact of being a standard in the market, also being one of the most recommended by artists that work in graphic design.
This model is the most basic in the Bamboo line. This line is specialized for enthusiasts and those who are start using this type of equipment. The most popular items in the Bamboo series are the MTE-450 model, the Fun model and the Pen & Touch Model.
Wacom has, besides Bamboo series, the Intuos series and Cintiq series. The Intuos series if specialized for the professional use, having a bigger resolution, bigger area of work, and is able to recognize pen slope. Obviously that the price of these tables are also bigger. The Cintiq series is the top of Wacom. The biggest difference is that you draw directly in the tablet.
Product Dimensions: 250 x 251 x 70 cm ; 862 g
Active area: 147x93 mm
Resolution: 2540 lpi
4 configurable short buttons
Stylus (pen) with two buttons and rubber in the top part
Sensitive buttons to the touch for rotate/zoom
USB connection
One of the main advantages of Wacom when comparing with another brands, is the fact that the pen does not need battery. It's a technology that uses electromagnetic induction as a way of communication between the pen and the tablet (you don't need to touch the pen with the surface of the tablet). This makes the pen much more easy to work with!
