Default What graphics tablet?

I think I'd like a graphics tablet but have never used one before, are the bottom end ones (£30-ish) any good or should I splash out a bit more? I'd be mainly using it with PSP X2 for photo retouching.

Cheers

If you can afford i'd go for the Wacom Intuos3 range. I would go for the A5 size if you are using it on anything up to 20" monitor. A4 or bigger and you'll find yourself having to move your wrist/hand quite a lot.


Edited to say:
If it's more for just touching up photo's maybe a cheaper alternative would surfice as accuracy isn't as paramount.

most people swear by the Wacom ones, I have one of the smaller cheaper Wacoms, and tbh I dont use it cos its not all that good

What I mean by that is that the tablet itself is fine, its just the mouse moving side of it is a bit annoying as the sensitivity is too high and its limited in functionality (button wise etc)
