AutoCAD, Drafting & Design

I am new to this forum, so hello to all.
It seems that a Tablet would be the ideal tool for architectural field work, however, I have not found an adequate information source regarding this type of use. Hopefully this thread will breed like bunnies, hangers, and lonely socks.
The information I am looking for:
1) Any experiences using the Tablet as the digitizer/default pointing device in AutoCAD (in conjunction with a keyboard when neccesary)
2) Are there any issues with different versions of ACAD (I am currently using 2002)
3) As an input device, what should I look for or avoid (such as "feel", touchscreen vs pen, pen click options, etc)
4) Has anyone been using E-Template with a Tablet? (haven't heard of E-Template? go Here ->
http://www.etemplatesystem.com/etemplate_photo.htm)
5) My intention was to use an IR or RF keyboard and/ or mouse (I currently use a Logitech set) any comments?
6) Because the software I will use is math intensive, any input regarding processors would be helpful.
7) I may also use the Tablet for presentation of designs to the customer, this may include using Microvellum to render those designs. Is this asking too much of a tablet? (havent heard of Microvellum? go Here -> http://www.Microvellum.com/)

Some sites that have been somewhat helpful:

Thank you all for any and all help!
