I second the recommendation on the Korg TM-40. The tuner seems very accurate and works plenty quick. Cheaper tuners are so slow, especially with students. The TM-40 is also half-metronome, and though it doesn't have all the features of a Dr. Beat, it more than does the job. The best part is a great tuner and metronome are all on the same device! Battery life is good. Yes, both the tuner and metronome can be use simultaneously.
