You could check Wacom, if you haven't. Their formerly available Bamboo tablets are reasonably cheap and are a good starting point for someone jumping into drawing digital mediums, but keep mind the transition may be a bit awkward if you've been a purely physical medium artist for years. They're also pretty high quality, even for their Bamboo line. While their main Bamboo line is now discontinued, you can probably still find used units on ebay and amazon but even their mainline Intuos tablets are cheap, at least for the entry-level ones which are still great.
