Well i'm not a modeller guru but as far as i've used/tried out some of these tools:
Maya (6) has a great production chain (especially for tv) but the gui is programmed so badly (from a speed point of view). Also the exporter to sw3d is rubbish as there's so much junk included.
xsi (4) was a little bit different for me to use but the output is great! For me the best rendering output i've seen.
3dsmax (7) is the one i can use the best. But that doesn't obvioulsy mean that it's the best. I'm just used to it. The interface is fast and the sw3d exporter is the best of all tools.
Greetings,
