Digital BW, The Print

Well, Watcom tablets don't come very cheap, but it looks like they're worth
the money. Given that my desktop is quite crowded already, do you really
think A4 size is necessary? What about A5 or even A6? After all I don't need
it for drawing, so I guess I could compromise a bit.
Also, the smaller it is the more unlikely my wife is to ask "How much did
you pay for that?" ;-)

Just want to add my support for using a tablet. They're one of those
things you just can't live without once you learn how to use them. In
comparison using a mouse feels like painting with a brick.

Get a good one, a Wacom Intous II 6x8 sized tablet should be ideal. They
also last really long, I've only upgraded to a newer model once during
the seven years I've used my wacoms, and the old one still works fine.
