Good turntables w/o record clamps

What are the decent turntables out there, used or new in the 2k - 3k range, that do not use or need record clamps?

And yes vinyl is my bag. So even the ones that come with can be used without apparently. I have a Linn right now and I know it would drive me nuts to have to use a clamp (on a new table) as I play the thing regularly.
