Wheel Recommendation

Hi all,
Just had an off when an old boy on an older mountain bike turned across my path on my commute home on my 6 day old Ridgeback Supernova. :shock: He ws up and away fine. My front rim is beyond repair! All the LBS I have spoken to have recommended a new wheel rather than a rebuild. It was an Alex ACE-19 36 spoke on a deore hub. Should I bother trying to get a new rim and rebuild? If not, what should I replace it with? Any recommendations?
Cheers Paul

Something like this would be equivalent I think:

But then it wouldn't quite match.....0
