Idiom Press's keyers are superb for use with a paddle. Bob's a good friend, and I've purchased a couple of the Idiom Press keyers.
If you wish to use keying from a contest logger such as N1MM, WriteLog, Win-Test and several others, you'll find the K1EL WinKey important because of its ability to be controlled by a computer program. The WinKey chip is incorporated into several microHAM products. The Elecraft K3 has a fine built-in keyer that can be controlled by a computer, but it hasn't yet been adopted by many of the contest loggers. You can use programs such as G4ILO's KComm (http://www.g4ilo.com/kcomm.html) or the Terminal Page of the K3 Utility to exercise the K3's internal keyer.
