Answer 1

You forgot to mention what it is that you are trying to do with the tablet. The reason the Bamboo is cheaper is because it's more limited than the Intuos - it's about half as sensitive as the Intuos and has half the resolution, the regular Bamboo doesn't have an eraser function, it only comes in one or two sizes/colors (the Intuos comes in many combinations), the regular doesn't come with a mouse or any software... etc. You can use the following chart to compare: http://www.wacom.com/bambootablet/compar...

It looks like you'd be well off with the Bamboo Fun for the price, but again, if you are doing high-end work, you should probably invest a little extra money for a high-end tablet. The Bamboo and Bamboo Fun are intended as beginner/non-professional tools. Any work that you do for a paying customer probably shouldn't be done using the Bamboo, from the looks of it.
