My two aironets give me incredible coverage (with the addition of some higher than normal gain antennae), we also use them at work (centrally managed with a 4402 WLAN controller) and they give us 100% coverage at 100% signal across the entire building which is built like a Faraday cage!
I went for the 2651XM (which you'll pick up for £100-130) after throughput testing one at length using an MTU of 1400. It easily surpassed the 50Mb throughput, offers me all the features I needed, and more. So really it'd be hard for me to not recommend my own choice. A 2691 would also do the trick.
Although I'd keep a look out for an 1841, 2801, or possibly a 3660, you never know you may snipe a bargain.
Switch wise, it depends utterly on what you want to do with it. I went for the 3548XL purely because I'm ensuring I have the kit with which to do my CCNP labs, and the CCVP labs after that (hence why I have an NM-HDV in my 2600, and have it configured with a voice IOS)
