This thread revived Thom's interest in new wheels for my bike. I LOVE having a guy who likes to do research. After tons of reading, he ordered me some Easton EA90s from Colorado Cyclist today.
I have no idea - and I really don't care- why he picked those. He got me a fabulous new bike last year, so I trust his judgement.
They would (just barely) fit into your price range.

I definitely want to hear your opinion of the difference too!
I gave up on a new wheelset when I couldn't find anything in my price range that I thought would make a big enough difference to justify the cost. And then my darn LBS just handed me over a 29er to demo for awhile. Now I've listed my full suspension mntn bike and am slowly adding to my bike-fund in hopes of getting my own 29er!!!2005 Giant TCR2
