I would advise _against_ the Genius WizardPen USB tablet. It is cheap & works well under Windows, but I have had no luck getting it going under Linux. It has no drivers & standard HCI style drivers don't seem to work.
As a side note, if anybody has any experience hacking on USB devices I would be keen to talk to you - writing/adapting a driver for this device has been a back-burner project for a while.
