There are so many to choose from ... it's hard to make a single 
recommendation, especially since you've never used one.

Since you don't have bad habits to unlearn (from, say, using a bug), I 
would recommend that, if you can, start out with a light touch and close 
spacing, which will serve you well as you build speed.

I've been trying out one of N3ZN's keys lately and am very impressed by 
the build quality and the performance for price. Certainly not "cheap",
at around $200. The ZN-qrp model is small enough to tuck under the front 
of a K2 :-)

http://n3znkeys.com/ - he offers a 30-day return guarantee.

Bencher, Schurr, Kent, Begali are other names to explore. If you can, 
find a friend who has one or more to try out...
