Just taken delivery of mine an hour ago and plugged it straight into my work laptop and give it a blast with traktor pro. ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! Feels totally solid, piece of cake to get used to. Once my audio kontrol 1 arrives, and my maschine ... i'll be good to go. Well worth the money - the ULTIMATE traktor controller!
just came across a behringer ddm4000, they look canny for the price like. might get one after ibiza http://www.behringer.com/EN/Products/DDM4000.aspx
Got them in store now and one in the showroom for demonstration if you ever want to pop along to see it in action. Used to have one myself as i was never rich enough to own a Pioneer. They are the cheap mans Pioneer but offer much more control and customisation towards DJ software and features. http://www.soundware.co.uk/sc/products/Behringer DDM4000

Nope not true,the ddm4000 is a full midi controller that can be mapped, i owned it and made 3 mappings for it to control the decks. Yes you can't scratch or seek through a track as there are no jog wheels but you can still mix, use tempo and pitch bend.
