So cheap and seems pretty decent  :o
They make a bigger one too as well as a range of drawing tablets for PC.

I've got the Yiynova MSP19U which according to Frenden has the same digitiser.
I found the performance was good, out-of-the-box pressure response felt much nicer that my Intuos4, but I couldn't get it working in Linux so never put it to any real work.
Also got a Huion regular graphics tablet which was decent, much nicer pen and build quality that the Yiynova.

I don't know about the monitor based ones, but I got the Huion 1060+ last month and it works really well.

My brother had bought his a few months before that, but he got the huion H610 Pro.

Both work really well, and I'd gladly recommend the brand :y:.
Also, if you use GIMP, you have to go in preferences and turn on pressure sensitivity in the input options.  :)

That swivel arm in the video is awesome!  :o

Edit: It would probably be good to mention that theses are the first tablets we have had, so I don't know how it compares to pricier tablets, but the reviews for them seem to compare them to some of the better ones.  :)
