I have purchased the Bitscope BS300U.
- 2 Analog input + 8 Logic Analyzer input
- Sampling up to 40MS/s
- Refresh rate up to 40Hz with USB link
- Includes Windows and Linux DSO software, with spectrum analyzer.
- The hardware also includes a WaveForm Generator which may be
programmed with arbitrary wave form. (not supported yet in the version
1.1 of DSO software but coming in beta version 1.2)
- Communication protocol with the Bitscope is available so you can make
your own DSO software if you wish to do so.

A lot more can be found on their site.
