That's a pretty good budget. As in... you've got a world of choice with that money.
I'd probably go for a Bob Jackson (again).
The basic custom frame (all one-colour Pista frame to your size and choice of colour in 631 tubing) is £350, and an off the peg is only £295.
Get a good/great frame and drop some basic components on it. That way you can indulge and upgrade the components over time.
The only problems with this route is that you need someone to build for you if you aren't doing it, and it's very easy to blow your budget by not being tough on the component selection (I blew it on my Jackson, and on the frame... I don't even know how much it cost!).
Heh, if that isn't up your street... get the Condor Pista ;)
