I've been told that cornering with a 29er can be a bit slower than with a 26er, but I've no idea if that is true or not. I've a Jamis and love it dearly, so I will put in a good word for Jamis. I actually test rode a Jamis Durango before buying my FS Dakar XC Comp because the geometry was quite similar to the Dakar.
I don't know much about hardtails so I can't advise, but have fun in your search!
