Sometimes I think about buying an Alesis nanoPiano. Don't know if it is really
good, but I know at least one guy who was using it. And as a backup it can't
hurt.
On the other hand I still have a Roland JV-880 that I got together with my
Fatar sl-760. ;-)

I think it actually depends on your usecase and your financial abilities.
If you need it only as a backup when you don't have your laptop due to
technical problems or laziness, then maybe a "cheap" device from ebay is
right.
If you really want to use it and have the money, you should take your best and
favorite headphones[*] and go into a store to test and play different
modules.

Hope that helps,

Arnold

[*] Take your own headphones you are used to, because otherwise either the
headphone will be crap and make all the synths sound bad, or you get a
headphone/speaker you don't know and which you can't use to judge sounds.
