Wacom Graphire4 Tablet: $84.99 from Amazon (save $5.00)

Many of our users use Wacom Graphire graphics tablets with Groupboard. Using a graphics tablet with Groupboard is simple: just plug it in to your computer, install the drivers (if necessary), and it can then be used as a replacement for the mouse. If you do a lot of art or graphic design work on the computer, a graphics tablet is more accurate and faster than using a mouse.

Wacom's graphics tablets range in price from $84.99 for the basic Graphire4 (which is sufficient for most users), up to $3,000 for the Cintiq 21UX which allows you to draw directly onto a high resolution LCD screen.

You can buy the base Graphire4 tablet through amazon for $84.99, which is $5.00 off the retail price. Just click on the link below:
