Midi Keyboards?

Iam a total n00b so I dont really know what to look for. Im mainly gonna be using software for alot of things but I want a midi keyboard that i can tweak abit for no more than $350 USD

Whats the best for that price range?
Any specific things to look for?
Amount of keys really matter?
and anything else i should know

----------------------------------------------------------
I have a really powerful comp already so thats not an issue

I rather stay below $300 but if its worth it. Ill go higher

I have a 61 key Radium too. Really pleased with it.

The radium looks good. I've got an evolution controller, works fine. 49-61 keys, 12 dials. Light weight so you can easily throw it out the window after Cubase crashes and corrupts you entire file.

I use a Roland PC-2000.

Top stuff.

I got the Evolution MK-249C, but if I could choose again I would go for the larger version of this one. (I've dropped it on the basement floor a couple of times, it's very solid..)

I've got a Roland PC-70.

It doesn't have the rotational dials, but it is substantially cheaper than the other ones mentioned, at around 150.00

i'm also using the mk-249c. The knobs feel a little cheap but i haven't used anything else. Any opinion on the m-audio ozone?
