One of the less expensive and popular tables is marketed by: 
http://www.esotericsound.com/table.htm
It's called the ATEN, and it has all the requirements you mentioned. 
We've used three of them at Family Theater for over five years and find 
them serviceable, but, unfortunately, the last one purchased last year 
had a defective pivot in the tonearm gimbal ring.  Once we identified 
the problem, they, of course, quickly sent us a new one.  I have noticed 
that the unit is sold and manufactured under other names elsewhere on 
the Web.
