I have to say, I've been pleased with my 2300dl.  Works with Linux 
drivers from linuxprinting.org.  Sharp images, although I wouldn't use 
it for photos.  Upgradeable memory.  A real nice web based interface 
that provides toner levels, print counts, configuration.

When I got it, it was around $700, I've seen them for sale for $500 on 
pricewatch and $400 on ebay.  I suspect shipping will be costly though, 
it's not a light weight.  The toner cartridges can be had at Costco for 
$130 each for the high capacity cartridges, and you do want the high 
capacity ones. 4500 pages verses 1500 for the $100 standard capacity.
