Default Decent Graphics tablet?

Ok firstly sorry I didn't know what sub-forum graphics tablets went in so i stuck it here.:o

I'm trying to help my friend find a graphics tablet, I don't even understand what one is exactly but there we go.

She's looking to buy one that's not that expensive as her first to try, also apparently some of them have something called tilt detection or adoption or something, basically it's something that helps when your drawing at angles with the stylus pen or something, if it has that then that's even better but by the sounds of it it's probably only on more pricey models.

If anyone has experience with them and can suggest a few, from a UK site, that cost £40-80 that would be super.:happy:

WACOM. Don't bother with any thing else.

If she want to just have some thing to try out, I would suggest the Wacom Bamboo Fun series. However the Bamboo Fun is really just a toy for playing around and not doing any thing too serious.
If you really want to get serious, then I will suggest the Wacom Intous3 Series as you have much more sensitivity on the tablet, and there are more options avalable.
