I went to the two local Best Buys here in town and they both have Wacom Intuos 3 4x6 tablets on clearance for $124 and 6x11's for $245.

If your in the market hurry in there and snag one CHEAP!

It does take a while to get used to using a tablet & pen...especially if you are not used to drawing. But once you get the hang of it, using it in Photoshop can be amazing.

I still use a mouse for general computing and even in photoshop...but when it comes to actually working on the images, the tablet & pen are unbeatable.

Well I'm not Steve, but my local BB had both 4x6 and 6x8. The 6x8 was roughly $224 if I remember correctly.

We had it for about ~ $119 before liquidation, if I remember correctly.
It's not "Why they going out of business" it's "because you guys waited on a good deal, and it's a result of us already being out of business"

the pricing of the Wacom Intuos3 tablets vary by region/store. I was able to pick up the 6x11 for $220. This BB had the 4x6 at regular price ($219) while the 6x11 is $220. Another store had the 4x6 at $179 while the 6x11 was regular price ($369).

YMMV

FYI Wacom currently has a rebate on the 6x8 and Costco's price after rebate is $229.00.
