Tablet PC or Graphics Tablet?

Im interested in sketching concept cars, and after wasting nearly a yr sketching on paper and trashing it later, i wanted to move into getting them onto my computer as digital images.

I've heard of Wacom Intous4 and other types of Graphics tablets but they are more for professionals. I'm only 15 yrs old, so im not really that skiled :P

I really wanted to know if it'll be better for me to buy a Tablet PC or a Graphics Tablet. It seems the Intous4 costs over $300 and im not sure it's worth it, seeing im not a pro at this. Precision-wise, would a normal Tablet PC give good results as a Graphics Tablet? Should I spend i spend $1000 on a Tablet PC or should i get a Graphics Tablet?

thnx in advance! :)

Update:

If you have alternative graphics tablets, could u please name them, and if possible, give the link to their website? :)

i need to know the price ranges... is it possible to get a decent one under $100?

    You can get much cheaper graphics tablets, especially if you can manage with A5 or A6 size.

    Sure, Wacom's high end models set the standard, but there are many others - even Wacom do a smaller, cheaper model, the "Bamboo"
