Sorry to be late on this thread...
Shipwreck - I too, love Theremins, in fact, my band uses one from our first album.Our first one was a PAiA Theremax kit which was cheap, sounded ok, but had consistency problems. The one we use today is a Moog Big Briar Etherwave. It's much more dependable, but sometimes doesn't sound as good as the PAiA.
A few weeks ago my buddy (the Theremin "player" in the band) and I went to see a performance by the band Messer chups - a Russian band featuring world renowned Theremin virtuoso Lydia Kavina. It was great and we got to talk to her for half an hour after the show. She is a very sweet and talented lady.
She reccomended the new Russian made T-Vox theremin she was playing. It did sound good and I think it costs about 500 euro (in Europe) which is more expensive than the Moog. Mind you, she does work with the company, so she might not be 100% objective.
later
