Eventually a cintiq and an ipad will be my combo. The procreate software is amazing as well. I have seen great things done with it.

i use a cintiq for work, i really do not recommend buying one unless you can justify its use. Like if your life and paycheck depended on speed an accuracy. Otherwise if you buy it your just spending money on something to play with which might ruin your hand skills. When you can spend money on building a better computer and a drawtablet, If your computer isn't fast enough your cintiq will lag like no other, especially in high canvas sizes >2000pixel.
I use a Wacom Intous3 for most of my applications. and im probably going to use a use wacom 4 large and replace the action area with a LCD screen so i have a small portable wacom "cintiq" to lug around with me.
Its easy to stop doing hand art when all of these tools are available to you, which is why my sketchbook has to be in my visible range so i don't forget to practice.
I haven't done anything art with my ipad3 yet, I might stop by fry's later and pick up a stylus.
