Check out the AT&T 610.  I have only seen one in a demo, and haven't
actually sat down in front of one to do real work, but I was very
impressed with what I saw.  The keyboard had a reasonable layout
(although you can also get it with the UNIX PC keyboard if you want)
and the feel of the UNIX PC (very good.)  I understand it's a replacement
for the AT&T 4425 (nee Teletype 5425) which is VT100 compatible with
the extra features you would expect from a good ANSI 3.64 terminal
(insert/delete line/char, etc.)  Apparently the cost is also very
reasonable - I don't know what it lists for, but it's less than the 4425.
I'd guess you can get one with an internal 1200/300 baud modem for
under $1000 list.

Disclaimer: I work for AT&T, but do not benefit if the 610 sells more.
