im thinking of getting a tablet so i can use SC and zbrush to there full potential, ill also be using it in PS when i start learning how to UVmap in blender. does this tablet look any good and is it worth the money? im in the uk so ill have to add on a bit more for shipping (dont even know if they ship to uk!?). anyway do you a 12x9 tablet is good for $134.99?

This might sound a bit biassed, but I would go for a Wacom tablet. They are good. You should consider the Graphire 4 XL
( http://www.wacom-europe.com/int/products/graphire4/index.asp?lang=en&pdx=12 ) or Wacom Intuos
(http://www.wacom-europe.com/int/products/intuos/tablets.asp?lang=en&pdx=32 ) which is top of the line in the tablet products.
They do cost a lot, though. But I would still suggest that over the one you’re considering now. I have a Wacom Graphire 3 in A6 size. It’s fine, but nothing really special. So, if I would now buy a tablet, I would buy a wacom intuos a5.
A5 is good, but if it seems too big, you can always border the active area to smaller.
