So..I am considering buying a new tablet. My current is a Wacom 3x4. This severely limits my drawing style, as I tend to rely on more sweeping motions of the hand when I'm sketching.
I've saved up the money to buy an Intuos 3, 6x8 tablet. Just a little bit smaller than the paper I'm used to working on. But I thought I would ask..those of you with more experience drawing on the computer...is it worth it?

Any thoughts you can share on the matter would be greatly appreciated.
