Reccomend a graphics tablet for a 10 yo?

[Franklin]

Hey all. My 10 yo spend a lot of time drawing, and is now using the computer to do so. The mouse isn't very good for what he is doing, so I thought a drawing tablet would be a great gift for him.

With that in mind, what would be a good USB style one for the PC?

I would like to spend < $100 please.


THANKS IN ADVANCE!!

I have a Wacom. Here's a link to their offerings at Amazon:

It'll be a little one at less than $100, but I'd imagine it would still be more fun than a mouse!

Yup. go for a wacom!

Wacom is definitely the way to go.

I'm getting ready to get the Intuos Small for $199:



But there's always the Cintiq...

We started with the small wacom as well and now the daughter is in second year of college animation studies.
