What's the cheapest electronic/digital piano with touch-sensitive keys ? [View all]

I'd really like to have an acoustic piano but don't have the room. I don't want or need all the electronic "extras" found in electric pianos but if one KB can double as harpsichord or organ that would have its appeal. I see some Casio and Yamaha KBs aroung $200 that might be OK and then a big gap in price to reach the next performance level. Can anyone point me to *recent* reviews or recs ? I'm wanting to learn easy classical and/or jazz.
