The leading low-cost contenders appear to be
Wisiwyg (www.praxisoft.com) and Monaco EZ-Color.

Wisiwyg has been available for Windows for all
of about 36 hours.  Still awaiting a report
of the first succesful use on Windows -- though
there was a positive report from a Windows/beta
version.  And no reports about its use on Win2000.

Monaco is the older, more expensive product but
oddly enough, Wisiwyg is the one with the rave
reviews.

There's also an upcoming 3rd option that C.D.
Tobie's mentioned, from a company called Horses.
No time frame for that, other than "real soon now."
