I've never used Sketchbook, but after reading your post I googled it and it looks really good. Does it support all the standard bamboo productivity features (e.g. the eraser, clicking the lower pencil button to drag, zooming and rotating w/ multi-touch, etc..)?
So far, I've been really pleased with the software wacom bundled in, but if there is a weakness it would be a good pencil sketching interface, as opposed to painting. Especially the smudge feature on PSE feels like it's for paints, not pencil.
Unfortunately, it looks like Sketchbook licenses are only usable in a single country, which doesn't work for me. Pretty much anything on my laptop is going to get used in China, Taiwan and the US.
