Not in the price range, but I just picked up a Dakota 22", and I love it. I have a Dakota 26", a rolling duffel, and a carry on that are still holding up well that I picked up back in 1998 (didn't travel more than 3-4 times a year until recently).
[rant]On a related note, I can't stand eBags. They will have different coupon codes all over the place (banner ads, from Amex, etc.) for a diffferent % off. However, you have to follow a link to their site that will actually give you different retail prices before discount depending on the link you follow, so you may actually pay less with a 10% off (following the associated link to lower retail prices) than with a 20% off (following the associated link to siginificantly higher retail prices).
