M-Audio Keystation 49e vs Radium 49 - Crap or reasonable?

    Ok this saturday Im off to buy a Keystation 49e as a midi controller.

    I know all its specs but haven't actually had any hands on experience, I don't care for auxillary features and control surfaces so thats outta the question.

    My question is to anyone who uses or has used one of these, whats the build quality of the keys like, Do the keys make a clicking sound and feel like a cheap pile of crap and how heavy is the unit, I just don't want something so light it wobbles and moves around.

    For €50 used is that an alright deal or could I have done better or would a regular keyboard with a midi output of done better?

    edit:

    Managed to actually to find a radium 49 keyboard for €50. Has anyone used one of these? It looks identical to a keystation but has 8 pots and 8 sliders too and volume control.
