[X4U] Drawing tablet recommendations?

I'm considering buying a Wacom tablet for use with Photoshop. Anyone have
opinions regarding the advantages of the Intuos vs. Graphire tablets?

Early drawing tablets used to have a transparent layer under which one could
place a piece of art to be traced or copied using the drawing tools. Do
current tablets still have these?

How does the tablet deal with the fact that I have an extended desktop
(Apple 17 inch LCD and Dell 2405 - the latter is my main display and has a
"wide" aspect ratio). Does the Wacom tablet map to a portion of this screen
since its aspect ratio is different?

Thanks for any info...
