Edirol PCR 500 vs Novation Remote 49

[Fathippy]

Hello all. I am about to replace my elderly M-Audion Radium 49 with a new
midi keyboard.

The above two control surfaces are on my shopping list and I would be
pleased if anyone who has practical experience of either of these keyboards,
could give me their view as to how good they are or otherwise.

I could possibly stretch to a Korg Kontrol 49 if people think it is
substantially any better, but it doesn't seem so form the feature list ?

I will be using the keyboard on a Vista 64 bit based PC, with Reason 4 and
an M-Audio 2496 audio card. Purely a hobbyist, nothing serious :-)
