got an X-Board 25,
 and I'm really happy with it.  The mod wheel and pitch bend controls
 feel very smooth and solid, with a nice "grippy" feel to them.  The
 keys also are very good quality, not cheesy flimsy plastic things.  Oh
 yeah, and there's channel aftertouch and a place for an expression
 pedal.
 Just my USD 0.02.
 
I considered those, but I was scared off by some negative user reviews
on the web ... sounded like some serious quality control problems. I
don't remember where I found them.  YMMV of course.
