i've been thinking about getting one of these lately to do the fondnant decorations. i love the thin uniform look it gives. hoping someone can lend some advice on them...a good brand, general price range, where to buy, etc. i am a hobby baker, hoping to eventually open a business so i dont want to spend a ton of money just yet, but am certainly curious about my options.

the 30" ones runs around $4000, the smaller $20" ones are around $2300.
If you are just talking about one of the small ones to do small things, I just bought one from Michaels for (I think) about $14.00 after the 40% coupon. I have done two wedding cakes with fondant decorations since I got it and I think it is the best $14 I ever spent!!!! I LOVE IT!!! I'm sure there are nicer ones, but so far this has worked great for me!
ah - I misread that. I saw "sheeter" and "fondant" so . . . But I use the Pasta attachment for my KA for small items - costs vary a lot - can be up to $100 for it, depending on where/when you get it. Works well for uniformity.
but yeah, the sheeter is cool, isn't it? 
You can get a pasta roller like this one made by Imperial, from Williams-Sonoma: http://www.williams-sonoma.com/products/cw072/index.cfm?pkey=xsrd0m1%7C15%7C%7C%7C0%7C%7C%7C%7C%7C%7C%7Cpasta&cm%5Fsrc=SCH
You can get the same one from Bed, Bath and Beyond and Linens 'N Things (and use their 20% off coupons).
This is a hand cranked model but you can get a motor attachment for about $60 so it is easier to use. I recommend getting a motor as it is much easier to use with it and it will seem like you have an extra hand.
Jo-Ann's and Michael's sometimes have the hand cranked clay roller on sale.
If you just want to try it out, I recommend getting it from Williams-Sonoma because in case you change your mind, they do not give your grief on returns

wow, i am glad that this is not my ONLY option!!! if i was rolling in the dough ((no pun intended) i would love one of these. at this point though, i am just looking for simple..mostly for small decorations.
thanks everyone for the links and input. i'll look into it!
I got a clay pasta machine from Micheal's. It was $59, but I used a 40% off coupon. I was so excited about & started using it as soon as I got home. Then, I started reading the product info. & it clearly stated that it was not food safe. 
So, I took it back. I started to keep it & just make gumpaste decor. out of it (b/c no one would eat those), but I wanted it for fondant decor as well. I looked at Linens & Things & BB&B, & I couldn't find their pasta machines. Maybe I overlooked them?
I thought I'd check out their site and call and see what they had to say....looks good to me and the lady I spoke with said as long as you don't cross contaminate food w/non food items, it should be good. She did say a lady had called the other day and was telling her that it didn't work so well w/pasta though.

This is the one I use. It has the electric motor. It is my fav. tool in my kitchen. I do a lot of fondant accents and couldn't survive without it.

I use the Mercato with electric drive motor. The motor is chrome color.
