keystone class 5e wall jack inserts vs leviton quickport

I bought some leviton wall-plates from home depot when the clearanced them out for about a quarter a piece. now that I'm getting high speed internet, I've been running some in-wall cat 5e cable between our computers and the router. I've been checking into the prices of the inserts and the leviton quickport inserts are absolutely ridiculously priced (even on e-bay). the keystone jacks appear to more available locally and more cost-effective (even if I have to buy extra wall-plates. are the keystone plates just as reliable? are their any other less expensive alternatives to leviton and keystone?

Personally, I prefer the ICCs - not sure where you can purchase them retail, but they work great every time. One nice thing about them is that they are no tool type, you just line up your wires and snap down the cap - it punches for you. And, yes, it does work every single time.

DataComm also has some good keystones, but they are not toolless.

Good luck!
