Uh shield tablet. Derp. It's 300 and it's got the tegra k1. So it's probably the most powerful tablet for well under budget there.

Intuos Pro medium for sure (or whatever they call it now). I have the Intuos4 M, makes life so much easier love the OLED labels on mine though.

There is no bus powered LCD tablets, Wacom's cintiqs need AC adapters and the Companion Hybrid is out of the price range.
