Amazon has the Wacom Bamboo (not the Bamboo Fun) on sale for $57.70, free shipping/no tax.
The Bamboo line of tablets I think is meant to be a replacement for the Graphire line. The Bamboo Fun looks to be about the same thing as the Bamboo, except that the tablet has somewhat rounder edges, the scroll ring at the top lights up blue I think, it comes with a mouse, and several graphics applications (Photoshop Elements, Painter Essentials, etc). Bamboo Fun also comes in small and medium sizes, whereas the Bamboo only comes in small size.
You can find more info at Wacom's site http://www.wacom.com
Some quick specs:
- 512 levels of pressure sensitivity
- (I believe the pen also comes with an "eraser")
- Two buttons on the pen to configure for different operations
- 4 buttons on the top for various configurable functions, and a scroll center type thing to zoom/scroll through pages, etc.
- 5.8" x 3.7" active area
Here's the link on Amazon.
