Christmas Gift question

[!Certified!]

OKay so I'm buying myself a tablet for drawing for the computer. Now the big question is: What kind of tablet would be the best to start off for someone who's never used it before?

I have no idea which would be the best so I've decided to ask the forums, specifically the artists, about this kind of thing.

The industry standard is usually Wacom, so any products from them is guaranteed quality. They get more and more expensive the bigger you want them though. Are you thinking about doing it professionally, or just as a hobby?

Simply as a hobby.
It's basically for when I want to vent my thoughts without having to write. So yeah, which would you suggest? And yeah, wacom is the always the way to go with tablets.

Ok then, that gives me an idea of what to suggest. :)

I believe this is Wacom's cheapest tablet:

Going for about $70 on their website, but if you check around like on ebay, some of the prices can get as low as $40 or $50. Hope that helps. :)

XD that's funny because that was the first tablet I originally thought of going with. I thought it just looked cool, but now I know it's the best one I can go with now.

Thanks Aevitas. ^.^
