USB keyboards are fine, in my opinion much better than MIDI cable, atleast for amatuers.

USB is much more usable with computer because
- the keyboard can draw power from the usb cable so no external power needed (batteries etc)
- usb device is created as its own midi device on your computer so that you don't waste midi ports. otherwise you would need midi cables and perhaps midi combiner if you have other midi gear too (synths)
- most of the usb devices have midi output too, so you actually get best of the both worlds.
ps. there are no usb2 keyboards. its no use having usb2 as usb1.1 is fast enough (the speed at which data travels is the same, only amount of data is greater with usb2 as far as i know)
i have MK 461C and i just love it! |

How about Oxygen8 from M-AUDIO?
I´ve seen many artists using it at their live performance. |
