The list above is sorted from highest performance to lowest 
performance fairly accurately based on benchmarks I've seen on 
popular websites, etc.  I haven't personally benchmark compared 
any hardware above against each other myself though, but I've no 
reason to disbelieve the benchmarks I've seen.  You'd have to 
search google or something to find detailed benchmarks to back up 
the accuracy of the above list however.

As for the price, pick your favourite online computer peripheral
vendor or go to www.pricewatch.com or somewhere and compare
prices I guess.  Prices and availability will vary widely
depending on which country you live in, which province/state, and 
where the purchase is coming from, etc.
