Couple more suggestions in the blind  accessible qrp catagory,
Elecraft KX1, strictly cw, rig,  very small, very good tuner,/rig and tuner 
1piece, fits in shirt pocket ,/never had one, but have heard good reports.
and the Yaesu FT70,
the latter is a portable man pack type, with thumbwheel/bathandle type click 
or decaded switches, rig will do AM, USB, SSB, and CW, 1-10 watts/can be 
upped a little over that, has gen cove receive and xmits from 80-10 meters.
I've had one of the latter, it's quite good. Danny.
