Can anyone suggest a non-blade grinder for under $50? I want a more consistent grind and less mess. I'm ready to retire my blade grinder as a spice mill.

I picked up one of these

on sale for $15
I'm still holding out my opinion on it for a while, but $15 for a burr grinder, even if it's crap I can abide for abit.

There's nothing quite like a good bean massage to end or start the day!
You can pick-up a perfectly good, previously-owned, manually-operated, conical-burr grinder within your price range on eBay (I did); just search for "coffee grinders".
I've also got one of these manual grinders for turkish coffee, but it takes about half an hour of furious spinning to get a 4 cup pot out of it.
How well does a manual grinder work? I don't mind putting in some elbow grease, but if its hard to turn that probably won't be a good thing at 7 in the morning.
