Well,

there are two exotic ones:
the Latronic Notron (ultra rare, but very tasty) and the Schrittmacher
from Manikin, Germany: http://www.manikin-electronic.com/en/index.html

Both are expensive ...

Oh yes, there is the Doepfer stuff if you like it, the MAQ 16/3 is still
available but the Regelwerk and Schaltwerk may be found too.....

(I WANT A SCHALTWERK !!! ... if I would have money for it :( .... )

What about an AKAI MPC 2500 ? It would complement the PX-7
well and is solid built, good pads, lots of outputs by default.

Oh yes, and I recently heard at a music expo here from local reps
that 3500 is coming, too ....... Whoa, I will wait for that .... but not 
sure
if that's true or just a hoax.
But then you would be crazy not to use it's features, just the sequencer 
....

The MPC 500 is already out, I saw pictures of it.
It's tiny, it's plastic, it is seriously stripped down from the bigger bros.
I wouldn't recommend it ...

Regards,

    Zsolt
