If you want a cheap cintique alternative I can recommend the yiynova 22U+. The screen glass is a bit thicker than a cintiques, but it's not too noticeable and while the pen you get with it initially is really cheap, when mine broke after a couple weeks I got a much sturdier one that felt nicer as a replacement thanks to the warranty. It's not perfect, but it is a good buy for the price imo.
However, I've been using my old bamboo for painting on the go recently, and I gotta say that it actually has some advantages over the yiynova. It has some grip, the small surface size means that I can work with really broad, sweeping strokes, and having the drawing surface on my lap is just much more comfortable than drawing on a screen sitting on a table in front of me. If you still have an old small tablet lying around you might want to give it a try. Maybe you'll be pleasantly surprised by the results you get with it.
