my wife is looking for a bike and has the same requirements. we went on a bike shop tour around london on saturday to check a few of these options out (by coincidence, i hadn't seen this thread but had come up with a similar short list).
The charge filter mid is pretty aggressive and heavy for someone who's used to MTBs or hybrids. It is a lovely looking bike though.
The jamis satellite sport female version looks great for the money. Kona do a nice mixte frame that would be ideal but she doesn't like the colour (Kona brown). The Civia Bryant looks great, or the Prospect (got my eyes on one of these myself). Dawes do a couple of ok spec'd light tourers at that end of the market too.
