hardware question

[hillmanarts]

Hey folks,
Like most of you I do my digital work with a graphics tablet.
Had one for years and love it, but now im thinking of moving
onto Wacom's Cintiq, the display that you can use a wacom pen
and draw direcly onto. Since these puppies are fairly pricey, I
was wondering if any of you guy's have one, and if so what
is your opinon of it. Wacom does not have much in the way of demos.
So anything you guy's have to say about it would be great.

Thanks All

I have had the graphire tablet for awhile and i think that it is very useful,though i prefer using actual charcoal and paint then digital mediums now. Although it is small and it's older brothers Intuos2 tablet and Cintiq provide more for more money they can hold their own. I convined some art teachers at my school to make an investment and they are happy with their new intuos tablets. :D If you dont have the money and would really want one i suggest graphire unless you want to just hold all your money and shoot for a intuos...I think its all prefrence
