Hi Robert I am not a professional though I do cartoons for the disabled and do one for a mag. I have the Wacom intuos3 pen and tablet but just ordered the Bamboo pen and touch craft http://www.wacom.com/bamboo/bamboo_pen_touch.php/ for the touch feature.
You can get it online at http://www.amazon.com/Wacom-CTH460-Bamboo-Touch-Tablet/dp/B003IZELMM for exactly $ 99.00 no tax, free shipping depending on where you are or just the pen and touch for $79.99. It comes with Photoshop elements 7 which I use Photoshop 7 and 8 now. Except for a rough draft I do my toons almost completely with the electronic pen. They are good programs to start. With a little practice I am sure you will do fine. my cartoons are at http://terryloutoons.com/I have a lot of fun with the table now and hope to have more fun with the pen and touch!
