Hi all. I need a device to easily create vector graphics in flash. There is no need of superfine accuracy as I don't do complex imagery.
Digitizer pen has an advantage that it can be taken anywhere and used to record notes and drawings digitally whereas a tablet works only in front of a computer.
So is a digitizer pen good enough or do I need a graphic tablet?
Also can you please tell me about some vfm models? I guess I can afford only the Wacom bamboo pen tablet at my meagre budget. Have no idea about quality pens.

I have used Wacom "bamboo fun"Tablet for my online classes. It worked great for writing. Should work fine enough for drawings.
