I guess we've had good experience with ProCurve, so have stuck with them. I also like the fact that it is the same code train for the 5400 chassis and 3500 fixed-format. Less work for me when it comes to the test-upgrade cycle. We also make heavy use of sFlow monitoring (although I believe Foundry supports this too.)
Anyway, it's another option.
