tablets-dev.nokia.com already has the GLOBAL variant of PR1.2 available.
Downloading now and then flashing with flasher.
Is it safe?

Perfectly safe, all the non-UK people here have done it, and it worked flawlessly. Just remember to backup first so you don't have to reinstall all the installed apps and settings by hand after flashing.

Flasher works without any troubles with all win 32bit versions. And for 64-bit versions you have detailed instructions on the Updating the tablet firmware wiki.
Flasher does not void the warranty.

Hmm awesome, ill flash straight to 1.2 then, stuff the NSU, can i also flash the emmc the same way i have firmware?
And also do iflash emmc after or before maemo firmware flash?

Yes, but you need to flash it after flashing the firmware and without reboot (remove the -R from the flasher command line when flashing FW). I don't see why would you flash eMMC anyway, but that's the correct way to do it. Keep in mind that flashing the eMMC will remove everything, including backups, so make sure you copy those on your computer prior to flashing.
