I have an older style bamboo and while it was sufficient for the purposes I got it for I'm unsatisfied after trying to do some freehand drawing with it.

Basically its two choices 1. medium or large intuos and 2. intuos4 or 5.

I'm also wondering what a good price would be. The prices I found were Intuos 4 Med $400 Large 360. and Intuos5 Med 350 and Large 460 which are pricey for me so I would like a better deal if possible.

I'm also wondering if there will be a price drop in the works since the physical stores don't seem to have the 5 yet. Should I wait until the 5 hits brick and mortar stores to see if the price for the 4s will drop further?
