Table saws are scary powerful things- you do have to pay attention to what you're doing and treat them with respect.I remember Festool buying them and hoping they'd start bringing them to the UK, seems they have started integrating the technology but of course makes things pricey. It's pie in the sky holy grail table saw territory for me really, I wouldn't have the skills to take advantage of it (yet!). I do like my fingers though.
If you're only doing occasionals then Aldi/Lidl occasionally have them in the Aisles of Sh*te, mine was £100 from Screwfix about 3 years ago, came with a decent sized table (1200 wide) and a special stick for pushing through. Depending on what you're doing, a bandsaw might be a viable alternative- less prone to kicking but not quite as portable.
