I've got an Intuos Pen and Touch and I love it, especially that the cord is removable and fits my phone charger <.<; but it is a good tablet

loool.

He's wanting to get me a wacom bamboo.

Hmm well if that's what he's thinking I'd say (just in my opinion mind you) the Intuos Pro is designed the same way as the Bamboo were but I believe Wacom has stopped doing bamboo since they atarted intuos. My friend has the pro and she loves it.
