The current industry standard in tablets is Wacom's Intuous tablets and Graphire 2 tablets. You can get a 4X5 USB graphire 2 for about $100 online. I have the 4X5 Graphire. Both come with a pressure sensitive pen and a cordless mouse. My kid uses it more than I do. You can look at them at www.wacom.com.
