I have not compared much, but I am working with the M-Audio Ozone. That
won't be exactly what you want, but I like the idea of having some basic
midi controller at my disposal while working.

Most of the M-Audio USB devices are quite good in my opinion. And
several are supported using the madfu package. (find it on
http://usb-midi-fw.sourceforge.net/ )
