Blender is a really great application : the user interface can be tweaked as you want (you can have as much windows as you want,...) , you can even zoom in or out the button panels to see them bigger or to have more buttons on one screen.
It's not easy to start with blender so, as the program is free, a good idea is to buy a good book to help. And remember there are a lot of free ressources, just one exemple : the mancandy dvd that you can buy or freely download and it shows a lot about character animation.

ASh : I work most of time with my wacom tablet and, even if I use the wacom mouse, blender works fine with the pen : alt+drag = rotate, alt+ctrl+drag = zoom, alt+shift+drag=translate (and there is even a compilation that works with 3Dconnexion interface)
