I have an X41 Tablet, the first "good tablet." It was really cool for the first year. Now I hardly use the tablet functionality. Unless you have a really compelling reason to need pen input, you probably don't need a tablet. I thought I had a lot of good reasons -- including studying Japanese kanji and working with interactive music notation -- but in the end, it's mostly a gimmick.
Now combine a pen for handwriting and multitouch for everything else...then you might have something.
