recommendations for tablets needed

I desperately need a tablet. Tried to do some research on the different types but I can't figure out which ones are suitable. Can someone recommend a model which is compatible with PS7 and suitable for drawing, painting etc? Ta so much.

Mostly likely it's a Wacom. That's what the majority of people use.

I'd definately recommend Wacom too! In reviews of graphics tablets, their products usually come out best by far, and although they can be on the pricey side I've heard that you can definately feel the quality. I'd personally go for one as big as you can afford - the USB A4 tablet is something i've wanted myself for a LOOOOONG time...

Depends on the size. I can get an A4 USB tablet for £250-300 (UK Sterling) - but prices in different countries will no doubt vary greatly!

I do have a small wacom tablet, once you get it, it will take a while to get used to it.

Don't even think of it! And yeah. I'm still trying to get used to the tablet.
