Do you use a tablet? If so, what kind of tablet do you use? What tablet's the best one?

I use a Wacom Intuos 4. I think it's probably the best there is right now, but it ain't cheap.

I have a medium sized Wacom Bamboo fun. I got the model that came with a mouse, and now I wish I hadn't because I never use the damn mouse. I've been using this tablet since the start of 09 (christmas present) and so far it's done everything I've needed for my artistic level. I won't consider getting an Intuos or hell, a Cintiq (I think that's the best on the market http://www.wacom.com/cintiq/) unless I become more serious about digital art.
Right now, a Bamboo is awesome for a hobbyist like me.

Usually a Wacom Intuos 3, medium sized.

Currently a Bamboo (since the Intuos kind of died, but I still borrow my roommate's on occasion), as soon as I get a pen for it.

The digital labs in my school have Cintiqs available to the Animation students. They're -wonderful-. But so, so expensive.

I use a Wacom Bamboo of some sort. Possibly the Fun, I'm not sure.

Excellent, but will cost. I know a lot of artists that are perfectly happy with a Bamboo.

I sometimes wish that I'd gone with the smallest Bamboo. It takes up less desk space, and since the active area is ratioed to your screen anyway, I don't think it makes much difference to the user (unless they have giant monster hands).
AND THA SMALL BAMBOO IS SO CUTE NEWAY.

Yeah, I'm a minimalist and I draw fairly small in the first place, so there really wasn't any need for anything larger. It's the perfect size for my desk and I would probably trip over it if it were bigger. My friend has a somewhat bulky... cintiq, I think(?) and she's always got it in her lap. I'd go crazy if I had to put up with that shit when I wanted to draw.
